Ubiquitination, phosphorylation, and acetylation—triple threat in muscle wasting

Abstract excerpt

Loss of muscle mass is commonly seen in patients with critical illness and is associated with increased expression of multiple genes controlling protein breakdown. Transcription factors that are activated during muscle wasting include NF-kB and members of the FOXO and C/EBP transcription factor families. The activity of these transcription factors is regulated by multiple posttranslational modifications,...
