Post-Translational Membrane Protein Targeting by the Chloroplast Signal Recognition Particle [PDF]
Post-translational transport of membrane proteins poses enormous challenges to the cells. The transport factors must accurately select and deliver the cargos to the appropriate target membranes.

Effects of post-translational modifications on prion protein aggregation and the propagation of scrapie-like characteristics in vitro [PDF]
Prion diseases, or transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) are typically characterised by CNS accumulation of PrPSc, an aberrant conformer of a normal cellular protein PrPC.

Arginine methylation in subunits of mammalian pre-mRNA cleavage factor I [PDF]
Mammalian cleavage factor I (CF Im) is composed of two polypeptides of 25 kDa and either a 59 or 68 kDa subunit (CF Im25, CF Im59, CF Im68). It is part of the cleavage and polyadenylation complex responsible for processing the 39 ends of messenger RNA ...

Post-translational Processing of the Feline Immunodeficiency Virus Envelope Precursor Protein
The synthesis and processing of the envelope glycoprotein precursor of the feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) isolate FIV-UT113 was investigated in a persistently infected Crandell feline kidney cell line (CRFK) and in an eukaryotic expression system.

Primary structure and post-translational processing of the berne virus peplomer protein
The nucleotide sequence of the peplomer (P) protein gene of Berne virus (BEV), the torovirus prototype, was determined. The gene encodes an apoprotein of 1581 amino acids with an Mr of about 178K. The open reading frame was cloned behind the T7 RNA polymerase promoter and its translation product was identified as the BEV P protein precursor by in vivo ...

Peptidomics analysis of potato protein hydrolysates: post-translational modifications and peptide hydrophobicity [PDF]
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) often occur in proteins and play a regulatory role in protein function. However, the role of PTMs in food-derived peptides remains largely unknown.

Post-translational processing of Schizosaccharomyces pombe YPT proteins.
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 of nearby sites or a polybasic region to target plasma membrane localization.
