High-content assay to study protein prenylation.

open access: yes, 2008
The mevalonate pathway leads to synthesis of cholesterol and isoprenoid lipids. Prenyltransferases attach the isoprenoid lipids to the C-terminus of several small guanosine triphosphate-binding proteins. The prenyl groups are essential for the biological

Investigating the Regulation of Ras Protein Prenylation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Ras family small GTPases undergo prenylation for proper localization to the plasma membrane, where they carry out their signaling function. Prevalent mutations in these proteins that render them persistently active have attracted a lot of attention due ...
