Spanish term

fosfonilacion o fosforilacion

Spanish to English Science Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng toxins
Document is from Spain.

El mecanismo de accion toxicologico consiste en una inhibicion por ***fosfonilacion*** o fosforilacion del resto de serina de la triada catalitica en el centro activo de la AChE.

I know that fosforilacion is "phosphorylation." I can't find fosfonilacion anywhere. Could it be an alternate term/spelling for the same thing? The only other time fosfonilacion appears is in a table that says "Fosfonilacion/fosforilacion" -- no other context.

I wanted to say that both words exist and both are correct; they designate two different chemical reactions: phosphoNylation means transfer of phosphoNyl group to serine residue, while phosphoRylation means transfer of phosphoRyl groups; thus your sentence should read "phosphonylation or phosphorylation of serine residue..."

phosphonylation

Encontré "phospholynation" en varios documentos sobre química. Te anexo unas ligas donde aparecen ambos términos. Espero te sirva. Saludos.
