Huntingtin methylation analysis by mass spectrometry
For the past week or so I have been continuing to conduct an analysis of post-translational modifications or PTMs of the huntingtin protein. After the protein is expressed in the cell, it is often chemically modified by small moieties which can affect its fold and function called PTMs. In my last post I looked at Read More …
Huntingtin phosphorylation analysis by mass spectrometry
For the past week or so I have been conducting an analysis of post-translational modifications of the huntingtin protein. After the protein is expressed in the cell, it is then often chemically modified by small moieties which can affect its fold and function. In this instance, I have been looking at the phosphorylation of the Read More …
