Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...
