    Abstract : In order to build a multi-cellular organism and to regulate cellular functions, cells need to communicate with each other, as well as tightly regulate their behaviour in response to environmental changes. For these purposes all eukaryotic cells express a large number of membrane spanning receptors that either themselves contain catalytic activity or via cytoplasmic effector enzymes, function to transmit “signals” from the cell exterior to induce appropriate responses within the cell.

    Abstract : Posttranslational modification (PTM) of proteins is essential to maintain homeostasis and viability in all eukaryotic cells. Hence, besides the sequence and 3D folding of a polypeptide, modification by multiple types of PTMs, ranging from small molecular groups to entire protein modules, adds another layer of complexity to protein function and regulation.
