Palmitoyl-protein thioesterase-1 deficiency leads to the activation of caspase-9 and contributes to rapid neurodegeneration in INCL [PDF]
The infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (INCL), a rare (one in 100 000 births) but one of the most lethal inherited neurodegenerative storage disorders of childhood, is caused by inactivating mutations in the palmitoyl-protein thioesterase-1 (PPT1) gene.

Lysosomal lipid peroxidation mediates immunogenic cell death
Cancer cells rely on lysosome-dependent degradation to recycle nutrients that serve their energetic and biosynthetic needs. Despite great interest in repurposing the antimalarial hydroxychloroquine as a lysosomal inhibitor in clinical oncology trials ...

Palmitoyl-protein thioesterase-1 deficiency mediates the activation of the unfolded protein response and neuronal apoptosis in INCL [PDF]
Numerous proteins undergo modification by palmitic acid (S-acylation) for their biological functions including signal transduction, vesicular transport and maintenance of cellular architecture. Although palmitoylation is an essential modification, these proteins must also undergo depalmitoylation for their degradation by lysosomal proteases.

Treatment of CLN1 disease with a blood-brain barrier penetrating lysosomal enzyme
Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 1(CLN1 disease) is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease caused by genetic defects of palmitoyl protein thioesterase-1(PPT1), leading to accumulation of lipofuscin granules in brain and progressive ...

The role of palmitoyl–protein thioesterase in the palmitoylation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase [PDF]
Palmitoylation of eNOS is required for targeting to plasmalemmal caveolae and agonist-promoted depalmitoylation leads to eNOS translocation, modifying the agonist response.
