Significance of PTMs The major effect of phosphorylation and ADP-ribosylation is the disassembly of desmin filaments, while ubiquitylation of desmin leads to its degradation.ADP-ribosylation of desmin also blocks some PKA phosphorylation.Since serine 51(phosphorylated by PKA) and arginine 49(ADP ribosylated by ARF1) are in close proximity.arginine residues in the head domain are targeted by ADP ribosylation play an important role in stabilizing the filaments.Phosphorylation at Ser-7, Ser-28 and Ser-32 by CDK1 and phosphorylation at Ser-60 by AURKB contribute to efficient separation of desmin intermediate filaments during mitosis.
