When considering the functional standpoint based on the interpretation of factors involved, meat color in chickens appears to be associated with chromosomal DNA stability, functions of
ubiquitylation (UBC) and quality and quantity of various subtypes of collagen in muscle.

A recent study showed that the UBE2Ds, together with RNF138, accumulate at damaged-DNA sites and promote DNA repair via promoting CtIP
ubiquitylation and accrual [20].
The following primary antibodies were used: sheep polyclonal antiCDKL5 (1:1000, MRC Protein Phosphorylation and
Ubiquitylation Unit--University of Dundee, UK), rabbit polyclonal anti-GAPDH (1 : 5000, Sigma-Aldrich), mouse monoclonal [beta]-catenin (1: 1000, BD Transduction Laboratories), rabbit polyclonal anti-phospho-AKT (Ser473) (1: 1000), rabbit polyclonal anti-AKT (1: 1000), rabbit polyclonal anti-phospho-ERK1/2 (1 : 1000), mouse monoclonal anti-ERK1/2 (1 : 1000), and rabbit polyclonal anti-phospho-MSK1 (Thr 581) (1: 1000, Cell Signaling Technology).

Tau is also extensively modified posttranslationally and has been reported to be modified by phosphorylation, acetylation, glycosylation, glycation, deamidation, isomerization, nitration, methylation,
ubiquitylation, sumoylation, and truncation.[12] The largest tau isoform (tau 441) can be phosphorylated at numerous serine/threonine and tyrosine residues.[13] Ser/thr motifs preceding a proline residue are phosphorylated by proline-directed protein kinases (PDPKs) such as glycogen synthase kinase-3[sz] (GSK-3[sz]), cyclin-dependent-like kinase-5 (CDK5), and dual specificity tyrosine-phosphorylation-regulated kinase 1A.

Nrf2, which is regarded as a redox-sensitive prosurvival transcription factor, is maintained at a very low level through Keap1-mediated
ubiquitylation and subsequent proteasome-mediated degradation.
