Palmitoylation landscapes across human cancers reveal a role of palmitoylation in tumorigenesis
Background Protein palmitoylation, which is catalyzed by palmitoyl-transferase and de-palmitoyl-transferase, plays a crucial role in various biological processes. However, the landscape and dynamics of protein palmitoylation in human cancers are not well
