Chemical post-translational modifications include all of the following EXCEPT
A) Phosphorylation
B) Methylation
C) Ubiquitinylation
D) Acetylation
E) Transesterification

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Transesterification is not a chemical post-translational modification of proteins; it is a chemical reaction used in organic synthesis, such as in the production of biodiesel. Phosphorylation, methylation, ubiquitinylation, and acetylation are all types of chemical modifications that can occur to proteins after they have been synthesized (post-translationally) to regulate their activity, localization, or stability.
