Meanings of post-translational protein modification in English

NEDDylation is a post-translational protein modification that is tightly linked to ubiquitination and thereby protein degradation.

The versatility of ubiquitin in regulating protein function and cell behaviour through post-translational protein modification makes it a particularly attractive target for viruses.

As glycosylation is the most common type of post-translational protein modification, we are currently placing an emphasis on annotation of protein glycosylation in SWISS-PROT.

However, in contrast to other post-translational protein modifications, S-nitrosylation is generally considered to be non-enzymatic, involving multiple chemical routes.
