Mammalian ferritin may undergo modification by release of the initiating Met and acetylation of the next residue (Ser or Thr) [ 18- 22].
The proteins in saliva may also undergo modifications (glycosylation, deglycosylation, phosphorylation) due to underlying pathological conditions and/or as a result of exposure to drugs and other compounds or solutions.
In relation to LDH, its LHS sibling may undergo structural modifications based on different type of metal cation that is present in the compound lattice.
Since the substitution of indium in present system is in the place of strong ferromagnetic Fe3+ ions, which are very crucial in determining the magnetic as well as electric properties of ferrites, the ferrite system may undergo remarkable modifications in its behavior under the influence of electric and magnetic fields.
Furthermore, different proteins in the network may undergo various modifications such as acetylation, phosphorylation and ubiquitination.
Of interest, we detected an additional band reactive with cIAP1 antibody (Ab) in primary melanocytes, nevus cells, as well as in SK-Mel and MM-AH melanoma cells, suggesting that cIAP1 may undergo posttranslational modifications in these cells.
Under oxidative stress or poor glycemic control, RBCs may undergo posttranslational modifications due to nonenzymatic glycosylation (glycation) reaction, a process that leads to the formation of glycated proteins termed advanced glycation end products (AGEs) [ 46, 47].
In the second model, RecA may undergo a "modification" (e.g posttranslational) to reach an activated form that allows swarming motility.
Furthermore, Birikh et al.[ 18] suggested that the Hammerhead Ribozyme may undergo synthetic modification by removing the loop of one of its helical arms, thus making it catalytically active and able to cleave other RNAs.
