Full Description
This exam examines the various post-translational modifications (PTMs) proteins undergo after translation. PTMs significantly alter a protein's functional status and activity.
Understanding PTMs is crucial in proteomics and molecular biology, as they play roles in signal transduction, cell communication, and metabolic regulation.
Students will be assessed on their ability to articulate different types of PTMs and their impacts on protein function and cellular processes.
A thorough grasp of key PTMs such as phosphorylation, glycosylation, and acetylation is essential for discussion.
