Evolutionary significance of self‐acylation property in acyl carrier proteins [PDF]

open access: yesIUBMB Life, 2009
AbstractAcyl carrier protein is an integral component of many cellular metabolic processes. A number of studies have reported self‐acylation behavior in acyl carrier proteins. Although ACPs exhibit high levels of similarity in their primary and tertiary structures, self‐acylation behavior is restricted to only some ACPs that can be classified into two ...

A Chemically Defined Four‐Component Self‐Adjuvanting Tn Vaccine Activating Mincle, FcγR, and CD206 for Enhanced Antitumor Immunity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A fully synthetic four‐component vaccine has been developed combining Tn antigen, vizantin (Mincle agonist), rhamnose (antibody recruitment), and mannose (CD206 targeting). By synergistically activating Mincle, FcγR, and CD206 pathways, it elicits strong IgG switching and cytotoxic T‐cells, significantly inhibiting tumors in mice.

Sequestering sequestosome 1 via S-acylation in autophagy, Huntington disease, and beyond

open access: yesAutophagy Reports
Protein mislocalization and aggregation are hallmark features in neurodegeneration. As proteins mislocalize, proteostasis deficiency and protein aggregation typically follow.

Chemoselective Metabolomics via a Modular Reactivity‐Encoding Platform

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Conventional LC–MS underrepresents numerous metabolites due to heterogeneous ionization efficiencies and matrix interference. Here, we introduce a modular reactivity‐encoding platform (MREP) comprising four alkyne‐tagged probes that selectively derivatize key functional groups, followed by unified click‐chemistry capture to eliminate matrix components ...

Acylation of viral and eukaryotic proteins [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1989
This paper is a review article about post-transcriptionnal modification that occurs in viral and eukaryotic proteins. Acylation obviously plays a role in mediating protein-lipid interactions in targeting and binding polypeptide chains to different types of membrane, but it also seems to be important in mediating protein-protein ...

Chemical Bond‐Orchestrated Energy Depletion to Augment Lung Cancer Chemo‐Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study grafted dichloroacetic acid (DCA) into perylenediimide (PDI) skeleton via ionic or covalent bond to create novel metabolic agent PDIC‐AC and PDIC‐NAC, explicitly elaborated the underlying energy metabolism and therapeutic mechanism, and developed a promising strategy for energy metabolism‐targeting chemo‐immunotherapy by chemical bond ...

The enzyme activity of mitochondrial trifunctional protein is not altered by lysine acetylation or lysine succinylation.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Mitochondrial trifunctional protein (TFP) is a membrane-associated heterotetramer that catalyzes three of the four reactions needed to chain-shorten long-chain fatty acids inside the mitochondria.

The role of S‐acylation in protein trafficking [PDF]

open access: yesTraffic, 2017
Protein S‐acylation, also known as palmitoylation, consists of the addition of a lipid molecule to one or more cysteine residues through a thioester bond. This modification, which is widespread in eukaryotes, is thought to affect over 12% of the human proteome.

Physicochemical and emulsifying properties of mung bean protein isolate as influenced by succinylation

open access: yesInternational Journal of Food Properties, 2018
The application of mung bean protein in foods is limited due to its poor functionality. Acylation with succinic anhydride could be used to improve the functionalities of protein.

Bioinformatics and Expression Profiling of the DHHC-CRD S-Acyltransferases Reveal Their Roles in Growth and Stress Response in Woodland Strawberry (Fragaria vesca)

open access: yesPlants
Protein S-acyl transferases (PATs) are a family of enzymes that catalyze protein S-acylation, a post-translational lipid modification involved in protein membrane targeting, trafficking, stability, and protein–protein interaction.
