Protein Carbamylation

Molecular classification
Post-translational modification
01

Overview

Protein carbamylation is a nonenzymatic post-translational modification involving the covalent binding of isocyanic acid to proteins, primarily at N-terminal α-amino groups and lysine ε-amino groups, forming homocitrulline. This modification alters protein structure and function, contributing to aging and disease processes, notably in chronic kidney disease, atherosclerosis, and inflammatory conditions. Carbamylation serves as a biomarker for disease progression and can impact protein-protein interactions and cellular clearance mechanisms.
