Myristoylation. Top: myristoylation of N-terminal glycine involves the addition of a myristoyl group donated by myristoyl-CoA to the N-terminal amino group. Bottom: myristoylglycine (PDB entry 4zv5; Doležal et al., 2016; CCD code MYR). Positive omit density is shown in green at 3σ for the modified residue. The rest of the protein chain is represented by a yellow ribbon model. |
