Protein S-palmitoylation modification: implications in tumor and tumor immune microenvironment

Frontiers in Immunology
Protein S-palmitoylation is a reversible post-translational lipid modification that involves the addition of a 16-carbon palmitoyl group to a protein cysteine residue via a thioester linkage.

PalmPred: an SVM based palmitoylation prediction method using sequence profile information.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Protein palmitoylation is the covalent attachment of the 16-carbon fatty acid palmitate to a cysteine residue. It is the most common acylation of protein and occurs only in eukaryotes.

Mass Spectrometry Insights Into Post‐Translational Modifications in Extracellular Vesicles

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐enclosed structures secreted by virtually all living cells, serving as essential mediators of intercellular communication in both physiological and pathological processes. There is growing interest in their potential applications as biomarkers, therapeutic targets, and drug delivery systems, which ...

SMAD4 Palmitoylation Drives a Metabolic‐Transcriptional Circuit to Promote Tumorigenesis and Confers Radiosensitivity in Pancreatic Cancer

Advanced Science
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is characterized by frequent SMAD4 inactivation and profound lipid metabolic rewiring, yet how these processes intersect especially in SMAD4+ PDAC remains elusive.

Multiple palmitoyl acyltransferases modify DAT palmitoylation (803.5)

The FASEB Journal, 2014
The dopamine transporter (DAT) mediates the reuptake of synaptic dopamine, thus regulating dopaminergic neurotransmission. DAT undergoes palmitoylation in which a saturated 16‐carbon palmitate group is linked to cysteine via a thioester bond. Palmitoylation regulates diverse aspects of neuronal protein trafficking and function, but its role in DAT ...

Precision Medicine in Neurodegeneration with Brain Iron Accumulation (NBIA) Disorders: An Update on Emerging Treatments

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Neurodegeneration with Brain Iron Accumulation (NBIA) is a heterogeneous group of heritable, mostly recessive, progressive neurodegenerative diseases characterized by iron deposition in the basal ganglia and brainstem. There are no solid global epidemiological data on prevalence and incidence of NBIA subtypes, but registry data and ...

Identification of Yeast Protein Sequences With Similarity to the ESCRT‐III Protein Snf7

Yeast, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT‐III) is a membrane remodeling complex involved in a large number of cellular processes. It appears to perform an essential function in eukaryotes, since to date no eukaryotic organism completely devoid of ESCRT‐III has been found.

The CP123L protein of African swine fever virus is a membrane-associated, palmitoylated protein required for viral replication

Journal of Virology
African swine fever (ASF) is a highly contagious and often lethal disease caused by African swine fever virus (ASFV) in pigs. Protein palmitoylation is a prevalent posttranslational lipid modification that can modulate viral replication.

New biosensors and transgenic mice for multiplex cGMP imaging

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) is a versatile second messenger that is important for human (patho‐)physiology and pharmacotherapy. Live‐cell imaging of cGMP with biosensors allows to elucidate its spatiotemporal dynamics in real time under close‐to‐native conditions. However, to monitor two separate cGMP pools or cGMP/cAMP
