- protein metabolism variant
Animals exhibit variations in any process that involves the maintenance, biosynthesis or accumulation of proteins in the organism compared to control.
- protein methylation variant
Variations in the processes that incorporate methyl groups to one or more amino acids within a protein, compared to control.
- protein interaction variant
Variations in the selective and non-covalent physical association between two or more proteins, or a protein and nucleic acid/macromolecular complex, compared to control.
- protein signaling variant
Any variation in a series of protein mediated signals that help relay information within the cell, and thereby affecting changes in the functioning of the cell, compared to control.
- protein modification variant
Variations in the covalent alteration of one or more amino acids occurring in proteins, peptides and nascent polypeptides (co-translational, post-translational modifications), compared to control. This includes the modification of charged tRNAs that are destined to occur in a protein (pre-translation modification).
