Abstract
Aging is the primary risk factor for the development of numerous human chronic diseases. On a molecular level, it significantly impacts the regulation of protein modifications, leading to the accumulation of degenerative protein modifications (DPMs) such as aberrant serine phosphorylation (p-Ser) and trioxidized cysteine (t-Cys) within the proteome. The altered p-Ser is linked to abnormal cell signaling, while the accumulation of t-Cys is associated with chronic diseases induced by oxidative stress. Despite this, the potential cross-effects and functional interplay between these two critical molecular factors of aging remain undisclosed. This study analyzes the aging proteome of wild-type C57BL/6NTac mice over 2 years using advanced proteomics and bioinformatics. Our objective is to provide a comprehensive analysis of how t-Cys affects cell signaling and protein structure in the aging process. The results obtained indicate that t-Cys residues accumulate in the aging proteome, interact with p-Ser interacting enzymes, as validated in vitro, and alter their structures similarly to p-Ser. These findings have significant implications for understanding the interplay of oxidative stress and phosphorylation in the aging process. Additionally, they open new venues for further research on the role(s) of these protein modifications in various human chronic diseases and aging, wherein exacerbated oxidation and aberrant phosphorylation are implicated.

Abstract
Murburn concept constitutes the thesis that diffusible reactive species or DRS are obligatorily involved in routine metabolic and physiological activities. Murzymes are defined as biomolecules/proteins that generate/modulate/sustain/utilize DRS. Murburn posttranslational modifications (PTMs) result because murburn/murzyme functionalism is integral to cellular existence. Cells must incorporate the inherently stochastic nature of operations mediated by DRS. Due to the earlier/inertial stigmatic perception that DRS are mere agents of chaos, several such outcomes were either understood as deterministic modulations sponsored by house-keeping enzymes or deemed as unregulated nonenzymatic events resulting out of "oxidative stress". In the current review, I dispel the myths around DRS-functions, and undertake systematic parsing and analyses of murburn modifications of proteins. Although it is impossible to demarcate all PTMs into the classical or murburn modalities, telltale signs of the latter are evident from the relative inaccessibility of the locus, non-specificities and mechanistic details. It is pointed out that while many murburn PTMs may be harmless, some others could have deleterious or beneficial physiological implications. Some details of reversible/irreversible modifications of amino acid residues and cofactors that may be subjected to phosphorylation, halogenation, glycosylation, alkylation/acetylation, hydroxylation/oxidation, etc. are listed, along with citations of select proteins where such modifications have been reported. The contexts of these modifications and their significance in (patho)physiology/aging and therapy are also presented. With more balanced explorations and statistically verified data, a definitive understanding of normal versus pathological contexts of murburn modifications would be obtainable in the future.

Abstract
Diseases of the central nervous system (CNS), including stroke, brain tumors, and neurodegenerative diseases, have a serious impact on human health worldwide, especially in elderly patients. The brain, which is one of the body's most metabolically dynamic organs, lacks fuel stores and therefore requires a continuous supply of energy substrates. Metabolic abnormalities are closely associated with the pathogenesis of CNS disorders. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are essential regulatory mechanisms that affect the functions of almost all proteins. Succinylation, a broad-spectrum dynamic PTM, primarily occurs in mitochondria and plays a crucial regulatory role in various diseases. In addition to directly affecting various metabolic cycle pathways, succinylation serves as an efficient and rapid biological regulatory mechanism that establishes a connection between metabolism and proteins, thereby influencing cellular functions in CNS diseases. This review offers a comprehensive analysis of succinylation and its implications in the pathological mechanisms of CNS diseases. The objective is to outline novel strategies and targets for the prevention and treatment of CNS conditions.

Abstract
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) provide a rapid response to stimuli, finely tuning metabolism and gene expression and maintain homeostasis. Advances in mass spectrometry over the past two decades have significantly expanded the list of known PTMs in biology and as instrumentation continues to improve, this list will surely grow. While many PTMs have been studied in detail (e.g. phosphorylation, acetylation), the vast majority lack defined mechanisms for their regulation and impact on cell fate. In this review, we will highlight the field of PTM research as it currently stands, discussing the mechanisms that dictate site specificity, analytical methods for their detection and study, and the chemical tools that can be leveraged to define PTM regulation. In addition, we will highlight the approaches needed to discover and validate novel PTMs. Lastly, this review will provide a starting point for those interested in PTM biology, providing a comprehensive list of PTMs and what is known regarding their regulation and metabolic origins.

Abstract
The metabolism of glucose and lipids is essential for energy production in the body, and dysregulation of the metabolic pathways of these molecules is implicated in various acute and chronic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, atherosclerosis (AS), obesity, tumor, and sepsis. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins, which involve the addition or removal of covalent functional groups, play a crucial role in regulating protein structure, localization function, and activity. Common PTMs include phosphorylation, acetylation, ubiquitination, methylation, and glycosylation. Emerging evidence indicates that PTMs are significant in modulating glucose and lipid metabolism by modifying key enzymes or proteins. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of the role and regulatory mechanisms of PTMs in glucose and lipid metabolism, with a focus on their involvement in disease progression associated with aberrant metabolism. Furthermore, we discuss the future prospects of PTMs, highlighting their potential for gaining deeper insights into glucose and lipid metabolism and related diseases.

Abstract
Pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and danger-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) induce NLRP3 inflammasome activation, and subsequent formation of active caspase-1 as well as the maturation of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and gasdermin D (GSDMD), mediating the occurrence of pyroptosis and inflammation. Aberrant NLRP3 inflammasome activation causes a variety of diseases. Therefore, the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway is a target for prevention and treatment of relative diseases. Recent studies have suggested that NLRP3 inflammasome activity is closely associated with its post-translational modifications (PTMs). This review focuses on PTMs of the components of the NLRP3 inflammasome and the resultant effects on regulation of its activity to provide references for the exploration of the mechanisms by which the NLRP3 inflammasome is activated and controlled.

Abstract
Protein acetylation is a significant post-translational modification, and hyperacetylation results in amyloid aggregation, which is closely related to neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, and so on). Therefore, it is significant to inhibit the hyperacetylation of proteins and their induced aggregation. In the present study, we aimed to explore the anti-acetylation and anti-amyloid properties of five small molecules (gallic acid, menadione, resveratrol, apigenin, and quercetin) in the process of acetic anhydride-induced protein hyperacetylation and its aggregation. Optical detection methods, such as SDS-PAGE, inverted fluorescence microscopy, and endogenous fluorescence spectroscopy, were used to investigate the effects of small molecules on protein acetylation, aggregation, and structure. In addition, fluorescence quenching and molecular docking techniques were used to explore the relationship between small molecules and acetylation. The results showed that gallic acid (200 μM), menadione (100 μM), quercetin (40 μM), resveratrol (5 μM), and apigenin (20 μM) (unmodified rates were 61.12 %, 67.76 %, 65.11 %, 62.66 %, and 67.81 %, respectively) had strong inhibitory effects on acetylation, and there was no significant difference (P < 0.05). In addition, gallic acid (200 μM), menadione (100 μM), and resveratrol (5 μM) (inhibition rates of 29.89 %, 26.53 %, and 26.09 %, respectively) had more substantial inhibitory effects on protein aggregation, indicating that the five small molecules could inhibit acetic anhydride-induced hyperacetylation and protein aggregation. The underlying mechanism might be that it could inhibit hyperacetylation and resist amyloid aggregation by interacting with proteins to occupy acetylation sites. Collectively, our findings showed that gallic acid, menadione, and resveratrol could potentially prevent and treat neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, by inhibiting acetylation and acetylation-induced aggregation.

Abstract
Mitochondrial protein acetylation is associated with a host of diseases including cancer, Alzheimer’s, and metabolic syndrome. Deciphering the mechanisms regarding how protein acetylation contributes to disease pathologies remains difficult due to the complex diversity of pathways targeted by lysine acetylation. Specifically, protein acetylation is thought to direct feedback from metabolism, whereby nutritional status influences mitochondrial pathways including beta-oxidation, the citric acid cycle, and the electron transport chain. Acetylation provides a crucial connection between hepatic metabolism and mitochondrial function. Dysregulation of protein acetylation throughout the cell can alter mitochondrial function and is associated with numerous liver diseases, including non-alcoholic and alcoholic fatty liver disease, steatohepatitis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. This review introduces biochemical mechanisms of protein acetylation in the regulation of mitochondrial function and hepatic diseases and offers a viewpoint on the potential for targeted therapies.

Abstract
Specific post-translational modification (PTM) states of a protein affect its property and function; understanding their dynamics in cells would provide deep insight into diverse signaling pathways and biological processes. However, it is not trivial to visualize post-translational modifications in a protein- and site-specific manner, especially in a living-cell context. Herein, we review recent advances in the development of molecular imaging tools to detect diverse classes of post-translational proteoforms in individual cells, and their applications in studying precise roles of PTMs in regulating the function of cellular proteins.
