The Symphony of Proteomics
In the dance of life, proteins play,
With post-translational tunes on display.
Phosphorylation sparks their flame,
A phosphate touch to fuel the game.
Cysteine whispers, bonds anew,
Redox shifts, a path to pursue.
Modifications subtle, yet profound,
In these small marks, life is found.
Glycosylation, sugars sweet,
Chains of charm, functions meet.
Signal, structure, cell’s embrace,
Decorate the protein's face.
Succinylation, a mark so rare,
Metabolic threads it lays bare.
Histone trails and energy's crest,
A nuanced role in life's behest.
Proteomics, a map so vast,
Revealing secrets of the past.
Through every PTM, a story told,
In bonds of science, mysteries unfold.
We invite you to write essays or poems that explore and endorse the vast and fascinating landscape of proteomics and related fields.
How to Submit:
