MeSH definition : The appearance of carbonyl groups (such as aldehyde or ketone groups) in PROTEINS
as the result of several oxidative modification reactions. It is a standard marker
for OXIDATIVE STRESS. Carbonylated proteins tend to be more hydrophobic and resistant
to proteolysis.;
MeSH synonym : carbonyl formation, protein; carbonylated protein formation; carbonylation, protein; carbonylations, protein; protein carbonyl formation; protein carbonylations;
CISMeF synonym : formation, carbonylated protein; formation, protein carbonyl; protein formation, carbonylated;
