Proteomic Analysis of a Poplar Cell Suspension Culture Suggests a Major Role of Protein S-Acylation in Diverse Cellular Processes [PDF]
S-acylation is a reversible post-translational modification (PTM) of proteins known to be involved in membrane targeting, subcellular trafficking and the determination of a great variety of functional properties of proteins.

Measuring S-Depalmitoylation Activity In Vitro and In Live Cells with Fluorescent Probes [PDF]
S-palmitoylation is a reversible lipid posttranslational modification (PTM) that can mediate protein localization, trafficking, interaction with membranes, and a host of other biophysical characteristics. Over the past decade, a suite of chemoproteomic strategies have uncovered the breadth of S-palmitoylation, revealing widespread susceptibility to ...

Glutamate receptor subunit 2 serine 880 phosphorylation modulates synaptic transmission and mediates plasticity in CA1 pyramidal cells [PDF]
The cytoplasmic C termini of AMPA receptor subunits contain PDZ ( postsynaptic density 95/Discs large/zona occludens 1) ligand domains that can control their synaptic trafficking during plasticity.

Nitric Oxide in Skeletal Muscle: Role on Mitochondrial Biogenesis and Function [PDF]
Nitric oxide (NO) has been implicated in several cellular processes as a signaling molecule and also as a source of reactive nitrogen species (RNS). NO is produced by three isoenzymes called nitric oxide synthases (NOS), all present in skeletal muscle ...

Spatial regulation of the acylation cycle by thioesterase auto-depalmitoylation
The acylation cycle is a reaction diffusion mechanism thatmaintains H/N-Ras localization on the plasma membrane (PM)by countering the equilibration of palmitoylated H/N-Rasproteins to endomembranes. The thioesterases APT1/2perform this critical function of depalmitoylating mislocalizedH/N-Ras proteins, thereby allowing them to diffuse rapidly andre ...

GABAAR-PPT1 palmitoylation homeostasis controls synaptic transmission and circuitry oscillation
The infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis, also called CLN1 disease, is a fatal neurodegenerative disease caused by mutations in the CLN1 gene encoding palmitoyl protein thioesterase 1 (PPT1).
