Different organisms like molluscs1,2, arthropods3,4, or fungi5,6 use tyrosinase enzyme as a promoter of protein cross-linking7, although this enzyme is most commonly known for its role in p igme
In Salix, the additional amino acids are blocks of detyrosinases, and the tubulin heterodimer requires other enzymes to remove these amino acid residues to achieve the detyrosinate state. We hypothesized that in Salix, other PTMs are responsible for the removal of the additional amino acid ...
