Regulation of G proteins by covalent modification [PDF]
Heterotrimeric G protein alpha,beta, and gamma subunits are subject to several kinds of co- and post-translational covalent modifications. Among those relevant to G protein-coupled receptor signaling in normal cell function are lipid modifications and phosphorylation. N-myristoylation is a co-translational modification occurring for members of the G(i)

Technologies for Direct Detection of Covalent Protein–Drug Adducts
In the past two decades, drug candidates with a covalent binding mode have gained the interest of medicinal chemists, as several covalent anticancer drugs have successfully reached the clinic. As a covalent binding mode changes the relevant parameters to

Weighing the Proteasome for Covalent Modifications
Posttranslational modifications (PTMs) control protein function, but established peptide-based proteomic methods often fail to provide a comprehensive view of PTMs. In this issue of Chemistry & Biology, Gersch et al. describe an efficient combination of chromatographic separation and top-down mass spectrometry that together with an intuitive ...

Covalent Modifications of the Ebola Virus Glycoprotein [PDF]
ABSTRACT The role of covalent modifications of the Ebola virus glycoprotein (GP) and the significance of the sequence identity between filovirus and avian retrovirus GPs were investigated through biochemical and functional analyses of mutant GPs.

Chemical strategies for the covalent modification of filamentous phage [PDF]
Historically filamentous bacteriophage have been known to be the workhorse of phage display due to their ability to link genotype to phenotype. More recently, the filamentous phage scaffold has proven to be powerful outside the realm of phage display technology in fields such as molecular imaging, cancer research and materials, and vaccine development.
