Abstract:Eukaryotic post-translational arginylation, mediated by the family of enzymes known as the arginyltransferases (ATE1s), is an important post-translational modification that can alter protein function and even dictate cellular protein half-life. Multiple major biological pathways are linked to the fidelity of this process, including neural and cardiovascular developments, cell division, and even the stress response. Despite this significance, the structural, mechanistic, and regulatory mechanisms that govern AT… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
