Chapter 10.6, Problem 1TQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
The identification of phosphorylation and acetylation on proteins using tandem mass spectrometry (MS-MS).
Introduction:
The process of adding a phosphate group to an organic compound in a biochemical reaction is known as phosphorylation. It plays an important role in regulating many cellular processes like signal transduction pathways, cell cycle, and apoptosis. Acetylation is a process that involves the introduction of an acetyl
