Examples of 'ubiquitination' in a sentence

Meaning of "ubiquitination"

ubiquitination (noun): A biochemical process in which a small protein called ubiquitin is attached to other proteins to mark them for degradation or regulate their functions. Ubiquitination plays a crucial role in cellular processes such as protein turnover, signal transduction, and DNA repair. In scientific contexts, 'ubiquitination' refers to this specific biological mechanism
