Post-translational Modifications
Post-translational modifications are chemical changes to a protein that occur after translation widening the range of functions of the final protein. Many modifications occur in the RER (rough endoplasmic reticulum). There are five types of post-translational modification.

Post-translational modifications are chemical changes to a protein that occur after translation. They widen the range of functions of the final protein. Many of these protein modifications occur in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER). There are five types of post-translational modifications:
- Formation of disulfide bridges
- Proper folding
- Addition and processing of carbohydrates
- Specific proteolytic cleavage
- Assembly into multimeric proteins
Examples of specific post-translational modifications include phosphorylation, sumolyation, ubiquitination, acetylation, methylation, glycosylation, hydroxylation, oxidation and deamination (conversion of arginine to citrulline). As all proteins begin with methionine, many have this first amino acid cleaved off during post-translational modification. This process occurs predominantly in the ER, Golgi and secretory vesicles.
