The chemical reactions and pathways involving the nonmetallic element sulfur or compounds that contain sulfur, such as the amino acids methionine and cysteine or the tripeptide glutathione. The addition of a sulfate group to a molecule. The posttranslational sulfation of peptidyl-serine to form peptidyl-O-sulfo-L-serine. The addition of a sulfate group as an ester to a protein amino acid. The posttranslational sulfation of peptidyl-threonine to form peptidyl-O-sulfo-L-threonine. The posttranslational sulfation of peptidyl-tyrosine residues to form peptidyl-O4'-sulfo-L-tyrosine. The covalent alteration of one or more amino acids occurring in proteins, peptides and nascent polypeptides (co-translational, post-translational modifications). Includes the modification of charged tRNAs that are destined to occur in a protein (pre-translation modification). The covalent alteration of one or more amino acids occurring in a protein after the protein has been completely translated and released from the ribosome.
