Histone Propionylation Analysis Service
Based on a high-resolution liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) platform, MtoZ Biolabs' histone propionylation analysis service provides precise detection and quantitative analysis of histone propionylation modifications. This service can identify propionylation modifications on histone lysine residues and analyze their abundance changes under different experimental conditions. By integrating bioinformatics methods, it provides data on modification site distribution, abundance changes, and functional annotations, offering data support for researchers to explore Kprop modifications in relevant fields.
Overview
Histone propionylation (Kprop) refers to a post-translational modification in which a propionyl group is attached to histone lysine residues. It plays a crucial role in regulating chromatin structure and gene expression. Kprop modifications are closely related to cell metabolism, epigenetic regulation, and cellular responses, especially in energy metabolism, gene transcription regulation, and cell differentiation. This service can identify propionylation modifications on various lysine residues and conduct a comprehensive analysis of both the modification and its reverse effects. It is widely applied in epigenetics, metabolic regulation, and cellular function research, helping to deepen the understanding of Kprop's role in cell biology.
