Cellular trivia ? anyone hmm hmm?

... building blocks of protein (though there are close to 100 different amino acids that are observed in proteomics: phosphorylation, glycosylation, acetylation, and hydroxylations of the common amino acids are just a few of the modifications we know of so far).

how is this possible?

So DNA is modified by other proteins/molecules such as Methlyation, Acetylation, Phosphorylation, Ubiquitination and Sumylation. These groups and other specific protiens (for example HP1) attach to DNA-itself and/or histone protiens (DNA wraps itself around ...

... done in the current study indicate that wild-type F. verticillioides has the enzymatic activity necessary to carry out the seventh step, the C-3 acetylation of isotrichodermol to form isotrichodermin. Together, the results of this study indicate that the Tri4 protein catalyzes the remaining four ...

The Fiber Disease

... in [1-4]). This is carried out by the MSL (male specific lethal) complex which appears to remodel chromatin architecture by a site-specific acetylation on histone H4 [5*, 6*]. In mammals, it is the female which dosage compensates, by silencing most of the genes on one of the two chromosomes ...
