Quantitative analysis of PPT1 interactome in human neuroblastoma cells [PDF]

open access: yesData in Brief, 2015
Mutations in the CLN1 gene that encodes Palmitoyl protein thioesterase 1 (PPT1) or CLN1, cause Infantile NCL (INCL, MIM#256730). PPT1 removes long fatty acid chains such as palmitate from modified cysteine residues of proteins. The data shown here result

Intratumoral PPT1-positive macrophages determine immunosuppressive contexture and immunotherapy response in hepatocellular carcinoma

open access: yesJournal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer, 2023
Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a malignancy with limited treatment options and poor prognosis. Macrophages are enriched in the HCC microenvironment and have a significant impact on disease progression and therapy efficacy.

An over-expression system for characterizing Ppt1 function in Drosophila [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2003
Background The infantile onset form of Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinoses (INCL) is the earliest and most severe form of NCL, with neurological symptoms that reflect massive neurodegeneration in the CNS and retina.

PPT1 inhibition enhances the antitumor activity of anti–PD-1 antibody in melanoma [PDF]

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2020
New strategies are needed to enhance the efficacy of anti–programmed cell death protein antibody (anti–PD-1 Ab) in cancer. Here, we report that inhibiting palmitoyl-protein thioesterase 1 (PPT1), a target of chloroquine derivatives like ...

Reversible Cysteine Acylation Regulates the Activity of Human Palmitoyl-Protein Thioesterase 1 (PPT1). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Mutations in the depalmitoylating enzyme gene, PPT1, cause the infantile form of Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis (NCL), an early onset neurodegenerative disease.

Dimeric quinacrines as chemical tools to identify PPT1, a new regulator of autophagy in cancer cells [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Oncology, 2018
DQ661 is a novel dimeric quinacrine that affects multiple lysosomal functions (autophagy and macropinocytosis) and mTORC1 (mechanistic target of rapamycin) activity by specifically targeting protein-palmitoyl thioesterase 1 (PPT1).

High PPT1 expression predicts poor clinical outcome and PPT1 inhibitor DC661 enhances sorafenib sensitivity in hepatocellular carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Cell International, 2022
Background Adaptive resistance and side effects of sorafenib treatment result in unsatisfied survival of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Glycosylation, transport, and complex formation of palmitoyl protein thioesterase 1 (PPT1) – distinct characteristics in neurons

open access: yesBMC Cell Biology, 2007
Background Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCLs) are collectively the most common type of recessively inherited childhood encephalopathies. The most severe form of NCL, infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (INCL), is caused by mutations in the CLN1 ...

PPT1 promotes tumor growth and is the molecular target of chloroquine derivatives in cancer [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Discovery, 2019
Clinical trials repurposing lysosomotropic chloroquine (CQ) derivatives as autophagy inhibitors in cancer demonstrate encouraging results, but the underlying mechanism of action remains unknown.

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).
