Introduction Translation and post-translational modifications (PTMs) are two essential processes that play a critical role in the production and function of proteins in living cells. Translation is the process by which the genetic information encoded in the messenger RNA (mRNA) is converted into a functional protein. PTMs are covalent modifications that occur after translation and affect the structure, activity, localization, and stability of proteins. In this article, we will discuss translation and post-translational modifications in detail, including the steps involved, types of PTMs, and their applications. Translation Translation is a complex process that occurs in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic ... Read More
