I had a test earlier today and there was this question that I just could not figure out. Question:

All of the following are examples of post-translational modification except:

a. joining of two or more subunits to form a quaternary structure
b. attachment of sugars, lipids or phosphate groups
c. division of the chain into sections
d. removal of primers


I do not want to have to wait until next week to find out the answer to the question, so could someone help me out please? Thanks.

c. division of the chain into sections

Some enzymes such as trypsin are released in the inactive forms. Subsequent activation is not considered post-translational modification, because modification is done at the Golgi apparatus before it is released.
