ExPASY contains a number of programs to determine posttranslational modifications based on MS molecular mass data.(a) True(b) FalseI had been asked this question during an interview for a job.The above asked question is from Post translational Modification in chapter Functional Genomics & Proteomics of Bioinformatics

Answer»

Right option is (a) True

For explanation I would say: Find Mod is a SUBPROGRAM that USES experimentally determined PEPTIDE fingerprint information to compare the MASSES of the peptide fragments with those of theoretical peptides. If a difference is found, it predicts a particular type of modification basedona set of predefined rules. It can predict twenty-eight types of modifications, INCLUDING methylation, phosphorylation, lipidation, and sulfation.
