Post-translational processing of Schizosaccharomyces pombe YPT proteins.
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1992 ras proteins are post-translationally processed at their carboxyl-terminal CAAX motif by a triplet of modifications: prenylation of C with farnesyl, proteolytic trimming of AAX, and carboxyl-methylation. These modifications co-operate with palmitoylation

The regulation of Hox gene expression during animal development [PDF]
, 2013 Hox genes encode a family of transcriptional regulators that elicit distinct developmental programmes along the head-to-tail axis of animals. The specific regional functions of individual Hox genes largely reflect their restricted expression patterns ...

Efficient trapping of HIV-1 envelope protein by hetero-oligomerization with an N-helix chimera
Retrovirology, 2005 Background The N-heptad repeat region of the HIV-1 Transmembrane Envelope protein is a trimerization domain that forms part of a "six helix bundle" crucial to Envelope-mediated membrane fusion.

Dystrophin-Glycoprotein Complex: Post-translational Processing and Dystroglycan Function* 210
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2003 The dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC) is a multimeric transmembrane protein complex first isolated from skeletal muscle membranes (1). The central protein of the DGC is dystroglycan (Fig. 1).

Gene induction during differentiation of human monocytes into dendritic cells: an integrated study at the RNA and protein levels [PDF]
, 2001 Changes in gene expression occurring during differentiation of human monocytes into dendritic cells were studied at the RNA and protein levels. These studies showed the induction of several gene classes corresponding to various biological functions ...
