Protein Stability may be defined by N-terminal cysteine acetylation and oxidation patterns
Ratcliffe
3 July 2024
The Ratcliffe group investigate the relationship between ADO-catalysed oxidation and NatA-catalysed acetylation of a broad range of protein sequences with N-terminal cysteines. This relationship has implications for O2-dependent protein stability and the hypoxic response.
