DMAP. In protein synthesis (such as Fmoc solid-state synthesizers), the N-terminus is often used as the attachment site on which the amino acid monomers...

Western blotting. The peptide sequence of the FLAG-tag from the N-terminus to the C-terminus is: DYKDDDDK (1012 Da). Additionally, FLAG-tags may be used in...

the N-terminus glycosylations that occur post-translation and contribute to an increase in apparent size of the mature receptor. The amino terminus of...

Edman degradation remains a valuable tool for characterizing a protein's N-terminus. It is often desirable to know the unordered amino acid composition of...

fully intact proteins, not just on the N-terminus of protein fragments or pre-processed proteins. In 1986, the N-end rule was elucidated, and it states...
