Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of tubulin, including acetylation, glutamylation and detyrosination, play a critical role in dictating the dynamic behaviour and specialised functions of ...

Protein AMPylation represents a specialised post‐translational modification (PTM) in which an adenosine monophosphate (AMP) moiety is covalently attached to specific amino acid residues on target ...

Lactylation, a recently identified post-translational modification, has emerged as important for immune regulation, tissue repair, cancer cell metabolism, and now, potentially, Alzheimer’s disease. In ...
