APT1-derived depalmitoylation of CD36 alleviates diabetes-induced lipotoxicity in podocytes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Biological Sciences
Cluster of Differentiation 36 (CD36), also known as scavenger receptor B2, plays a critical role in controlling podocyte lipid metabolism, mediating the onset and progression of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). However, the post-translational regulation of CD36 and its exact role in lipid transport within podocytes remain unclear.

Spatial regulation of the acylation cycle by thioesterase auto-depalmitoylation

open access: yes, 2015
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 ...

Investigation of the properties of Acyl protein thioesterases and their role in Ras depalmitoylation

open access: yes, 2017
Es konnte gezeigt werden, dass die Inhibition des Proteins Acyl Protein Thioesterase (APT) die Lokalisierung von palmitoylierten Ras Proteinen derart verändern kann, dass eine Reduzierung der onkogenen Ras Aktivität beobachtet wird. Die genaue physiologische Rolle von APT ist allerdings weiterhin unklar, da sowohl weitere palmitoylierte Proteine, als ...

GABAAR-PPT1 palmitoylation homeostasis controls synaptic transmission and circuitry oscillation

open access: yesTranslational Psychiatry
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).

Cyclical palmitoylation regulates TLR9 signalling and systemic autoimmunity in mice

open access: yesNature Communications
Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) recognizes self-DNA and plays intricate roles in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). However, the molecular mechanism regulating the endosomal TLR9 response is incompletely understood.
