Much needed are new probes targeted to specific conformational states and individual steps of posttranslational modification. Proteins arc targets of many environmental agents, with potential effects on all functions and pathways in the cell, including the posttranslational modification of proteins themselves. the signaling pathways leading from receptor occupancy to gene activation, with all the various posttranslational modifications and their dependence on the state of the cell, terminating in the modulation of sets of genes combinatorially regulated by sets of transcription factors. |
