In Vitro Analysis of Hedgehog Acyltransferase and Porcupine Fatty Acyltransferase Activities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Hedgehog and Wnt proteins are modified by covalent attachment of the fatty acids palmitate and palmitoleate, respectively. These lipid modifications are essential for Hedgehog and Wnt protein signaling activities and are catalyzed by related, but distinct fatty acyltransferases: Hedgehog acyltransferase (Hedgehog) and Porcupine (Wnt).

Amplification of Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress via Inhibiting Lipid Droplet Formation to Enhance Chemodynamic Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An endoplasmic reticulum (ER)‐targeted chemodynamic nanoagent (TCBQ/iLD‐ER NPs) comprising •OH‐generating tetrachloro‐1,4‐benzoquinone (TCBQ) and lipid droplets (LDs) formation inhibitor (iLD) is developed for chemodynamic immunotherapy of tumors. After ingestion by cancer cells, TCBQ/iLD‐ER NPs preferentially accumulate in the ER and react with ER ...

Lipid Metabolism in Cancer: The Role of Acylglycerolphosphate Acyltransferases (AGPATs) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Altered lipid metabolism is an emerging hallmark of aggressive tumors, as rapidly proliferating cancer cells reprogram fatty acid (FA) uptake, synthesis, storage, and usage to meet their increased energy demands. Central to these adaptive changes, is the

A Wagner–Meerwein‐Like Rearrangement Generates a Vinyl Group in the Biosynthesis of the Polychlorinated Lipopeptides Fischerazoles

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The fischerazoles, unusual cyanobacterial chlorinated lipopeptides are reported. During their biosynthesis, a linear fatty acyl‐acyl carrier protein (ACP) precursor is rearranged through the action of the S‐adenosyl‐methionine (SAM)‐dependent methyltransferase FshF, to generate a pendant vinyl group.

ABHD17C‐Mediated S‐Depalmitoylation of BCL6B Enhances CD24 Transcription to Resist Macrophage Phagocytosis in Pancreatic Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABHD17C‐mediated depalmitoylation of BCL6B at Cys442 blocks its nuclear import and triggers ubiquitin‐dependent degradation, attenuating transcriptional repression of the anti‐phagocytic signal CD24. This mechanism enables pancreatic cancer cells to evade macrophage phagocytosis and fosters an immunosuppressive microenvironment.

MiR‐940 Suppresses Ferroptosis by Controlling Expression of Key Regulatory Genes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A CRISPR‐based screening identified miR‐940 as a critical suppressor of ferroptosis in cancer. By coordinating the downregulation of pro‐ferroptotic genes with the upregulation of GPX4, miR‐940 establishes a regulatory network that protects against ferroptosis and correlates with poor clinical outcomes in distinct cancer entities.
