Impact of post-translational modifications of proteins on the inflammatory process

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2007
PTM (post-translational modification) is the chemical modification of a protein after its translation. The well-studied PTM is phosphorylation, but, recently, PTMs have been re-focused by extensive studies on histone modifications and the discovery of the ubiquitin system.

Post-translational modified proteins are biomarkers of autoimmune-processes: NETosis and the inflammatory–autoimmunity connection

Clinica Chimica Acta, 2017
Basic research is showing new mechanisms involved in early immune responses and Neutrophil Extracellular Trap (NET) formation (or NETosis) is of key importance as first line defense against bacteria, virus and protozoa. Enzymatic modification of arginine in citrulline in histones is the prerequisite of NETosis being it necessary for decondensation and ...

Isoelectric focusing as a tool for the investigation of post-translational processing and chemical modifications of proteins

Journal of Chromatography A, 1995
It has been demonstrated that good agreement may be observed between computed and experimental isoelectric point (pI) values when proteins of known sequence are focused under denaturing conditions on immobilized pH gradient IPG slabs, at least in the pH range 4-7.5.

Post-translational Proteolytic Processing on Intracellular Proteins by Cathepsins and Cystatins

2010
Post-translational proteolytic modification by limited proteolysis is not only a biological process that produces biologically active proteins (peptides), but because almost all intracellular biologically active proteins are synthesized as pre-pro forms, ordered limited proteolysis by specific proteases is an essential process.

In vitro translation, post-translational processing and secretion of pulmonary surfactant protein B precursors

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 1989
Surfactant proteolipid SP-B is a hydrophobic protein of Mr = 8000 identified in organic solvent extracts of pulmonary surfactant. Analysis of the human SP-B RNA predicts that the active surfactant peptide is derived by proteolysis of an Mr = 40,000 precursor.

Protein Transport and Post-translational Processing in Photosystem II Biosynthesis and Homeostasis

2005
The biogenesis, repair and homeostasis of Photosystem II (PS II) requires both protein targeting and post-translational modification. The various chloroplast targeting pathways for both nuclear-encoded and chloroplast-encoded proteins are described, with emphasis on the subunits of PS II.

Post-translational processing in the synthesis of egg-specific protein in the silkworm, Bombyx mori

Insect Biochemistry, 1989
Abstract The post-translational processing of egg-specific protein (ESP) in developing ovarian follicles of the silkworm, Bombyx mori was analyzed using in vivo and in vitro labeling systems with some radioactive precursors. The labeling with[ 35 S]methionine revealed that ESP is first synthesized as 69 kDa peptide (69K-ESP) which is then ...

Application of immunoproteomics to analysis of post‐translational processing of the antiphagocytic M protein of Streptococcus

PROTEOMICS, 2003
AbstractPost‐translational modification of the antiphagocytic M1 protein of Streptococcus pyogenes can influence its binding properties for human immunoglobulin G subclasses and its invasive potential. Current methods of monitoring this modification event involve N‐terminal sequencing and are cumbersome, slow and not amenable to routine analysis.

A mathematical model that applies to protein degradation and post-translational processing of proteins and to analogous processes for other molecules in non-growing and exponentially growing cells

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1984
A mathematical model is presented that describes first order degradation and post-translational processing of proteins in non-growing and exponentially growing cells. The model applies to proteins that are substrates or products of processing. General equations are presented that can be applied to many different experimental protocols.

Post-translational Processing and Membrane Association of the Two Early Endosome-Associated rab GTP-Binding Proteins (rab4 and rab5)

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1993
The two early endosome-associated rab GTP-binding proteins, rab4 and rab5, are suggested to regulate endocytosis. In this report, we examined post-translational processing and membrane association of the two rab proteins. Human rab4 and rab5 were expressed in chicken embryo fibroblasts using a Sindbis virus expression vector.
