Post-Translational Modifications (PTM) of Tubulin
In this post, I'd like to take a look at the current understanding of tubulin PTMs, that include tyrosination/detyrosination, Δ2-tubulin formation, acetylation, phosphorylation, ubiquitination, glutamylation,
3 functional assays to investigate actin dynamics
Today, I'd like to give you an overview about methods in actin research with validated R&DÂ products and kits which will allow you to measure binding to actin and effects on the polymerisation dynamics
Cell signalling: How to easily detect mono- and poly-Ub target proteins
How to make Post Translational Modification characterization easier
Signal-Seeker assays (Cytoskeleton Inc.) provide researchers with the most comprehensive reagents enabling highly sensitive and specific detection of the key Post Translational Modifications (PTMs)
Cell signalling studies: Tips for selecting the best Small G Protein activation assay
Small GTP-binding proteins such as Rho and Ras GTPase family members are involved in regulating cell signalling pathways and impact a wide range of cellular processes, functions, and morphology. In this
Therapeutic Target - Ubiquitin-Proteasome system: What about tubulin?
The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) is a well-characterized protein degradation system in cells whose dysfunction is implicated in many diseases, including neurodegeneration and cancer1,2. Major UPS
Powerful and reliable solutions to decipher Actin Dynamics
As is well known, the actin cytoskeleton is a highly dynamic structure, involved in a large number of cellular processes, including muscle contraction, lamellopodial extrusion, cell locomotion, cytokinesis,
What is the connection between COVID-19 severity and gene expression in immune cells?
The immune system, responsible for fighting off infections and diseases, refers to multiple biological processes that have different functions and contributions to the immune system and its response to
What diseases are linked to Microbiota disturbance?
The microbiota is the set of microbial organisms in a community, generally used in reference to an animal host. The digestive microbiota is the most common.
What we call a microbiome is the set of microorganisms
