Key Role of Phosphorylation in Small Heat Shock Protein Regulation via Oligomeric Disaggregation and Functional Activation by Zachary B. Sluzala, Angelina Hamati, Patrice E. Fort

“…Unlike other PTMs such as deamidation, oxidation, and glycation—which are often linked to protein destabilization—phosphorylation generally induces structural transitions that enhance sHSP activity. Specifically, phosphorylation promotes the disaggregation of sHSP oligomers into smaller, more active complexes, thereby increasing their efficiency. …”
