In vitro Analysis of Ubiquitin-like Protein Modification in Archaea

Bio-Protocol, 2018
The ubiquitin-like (Ubl) protein is widely distributed in Archaea and involved in many cellular pathways. A well-established method to reconstitute archaeal Ubl protein conjugation in vitro is important to better understand the process of archaeal Ubl ...
