Post-Translationally Regulated Protein Arginine-to-Proline Conversion in Alzheimer’s Brains
The current belief is that amino acid sequences in protein structures are defined by DNA sequences. I challenge this concept by hypothesizing that an arginine (Arg) residue in the protein structure can post-translationally be converted to a proline (Pro) residue through a redox mechanism. Reactive o...
