Post-translational modifications of the polycystin proteins [PDF]
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common inherited cause of kidney failure and affects up to 12 million people worldwide. Germline mutations in two genes, PKD1 or PKD2, account for almost all patients with ADPKD.

iProteinDB: An Integrative Database of Drosophila Post-translational Modifications
Post-translational modification (PTM) serves as a regulatory mechanism for protein function, influencing their stability, interactions, activity and localization, and is critical in many signaling pathways.

Post-Translational Modifications of TRP Channels [PDF]
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels constitute an ancient family of cation channels that have been found in many eukaryotic organisms from yeast to human. TRP channels exert a multitude of physiological functions ranging from Ca2+ homeostasis in the kidney to pain reception and vision. These channels are activated by a wide range of stimuli and

Smc5/6: a link between DNA repair and unidirectional replication? [PDF]
Of the three structural maintenance of chromosome (SMC) complexes, two directly regulate chromosome dynamics. The third, Smc5/6, functions mainly in homologous recombination and in completing DNA replication.

Deciphering post‐translational modification codes [PDF]
Post‐translational modifications (PTMs) occur on nearly all proteins. Many domains within proteins are modified on multiple amino acid sidechains by diverse enzymes to create a myriad of possible protein species. How these combinations of PTMs lead to distinct biological outcomes is only beginning to be understood.

Functional divergence in the role of N-linked glycosylation in smoothened signaling [PDF]
The G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) Smoothened (Smo) is the requisite signal transducer of the evolutionarily conserved Hedgehog (Hh) pathway. Although aspects of Smo signaling are conserved from Drosophila to vertebrates, significant differences have ...

RanBP2-Mediated SUMOylation Promotes Human DNA Polymerase Lambda Nuclear Localization and DNA Repair [PDF]
Cellular DNA is under constant attack by a wide variety of agents, both endogenous and exogenous. To counteract DNA damage, human cells have a large collection of DNA repair factors. Among them, DNA polymerase lambda (Polλ) stands out for its versatility,

Orchestrating the proteome with post-translational modifications [PDF]
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) add tremendous complexity to cellular proteomes. The large variety of these modifications and their concurrent appearance in proteins dramatically increase the proteome size from mere thousands to the order of millions of possible protein forms.
