phosphomutant

Example:The phosphomutant protein is phosphorylated at a specific site, leading to increased kinase activity and activation of downstream signaling cascades.

Definition:A protein that has undergone a mutation resulting in a change in its phosphorylation state, which can influence its activity, stability, or function.

Example:Upon analysis, the phosphomutant cell displayed a higher level of proliferation compared to the wild-type cell.

Definition:A cell that contains phosphomutants and reflects the altered phosphorylation state in its proteins, which can influence cell behavior and function.

Example:The phosphomutant enzyme showed a reduced activity when phosphorylated at a certain residue, which could be due to a decrease in its conformational flexibility.

Definition:An enzyme that has undergone a mutation resulting in a change in its phosphorylation state, which can affect its catalytic activity or stability.
