Lysine acetylation and the bremodomain: A new partnership for signaling

Article Abstract:

The modification in lysine acetylation is reversible in vivo, with its specialty and level being largely controlled by signal-dependent association of substracts with acetyltransferases and deacetylases. The recognition of acetyllysine by bromodomains reiterates the signaling principle that a modified residue serves as a ligand or generates a binding site for protein modules to be able to recognize the modification.

Forces maintaining organellar genomes: Is any as strong as genetic code disparity or hydrophobicity

Article Abstract:

All genes that might be thought to imply the existence of a barrier to organellar gene transfer comparable in severity to code disparity and hydrophobicity are identified. It is shown that none of them actually implies this possibility and in particular, no functional property of organellar proteins such as involvement in redox processes, appears to be invoked as a more serious barrier.
