Post-translational palmitoylation of metabolic proteins

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023
Numerous cellular proteins are post-translationally modified by addition of a lipid group to their structure, which dynamically influences the proteome by increasing hydrophobicity of proteins often impacting protein conformation, localization, stability,

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.

Mechanisms and functional implications of ZDHHC5 in cellular physiology and disease

Journal of Lipid Research
Post-translational lipid modification by palmitoylation is a reversible process crucial for maintaining cellular functionality. The palmitoyl acyltransferase zinc finger Asp-His-His-Cys motif-containing 5 (ZDHHC5) has garnered significant attention due ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Role of Palmitoylation of Postsynaptic Proteins in Promoting Synaptic Plasticity

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2019
Many postsynaptic proteins undergo palmitoylation, the reversible attachment of the fatty acid palmitate to cysteine residues, which influences trafficking, localization, and protein interaction dynamics.

A Simple, Semi-Quantitative Acyl Biotin Exchange-Based Method to Detect Protein S-Palmitoylation Levels

Membranes, 2023
Protein S-palmitoylation is a reversible post-translational lipidation in which palmitic acid (16:0) is added to protein cysteine residue by a covalent thioester bond.

Materials‐Guided Gene‐Ionizable Lipid Nanoparticles to Reverse Iron‐Associated Immune Resistance in Renal Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron overload is a common metabolic disturbance in cancer and contributes to poor outcomes in renal cell carcinoma (RCC), yet its effects on the tumour immune microenvironment remain unclear. Here we identify a previously unrecognized immunosuppressive axis in which iron overload downregulates the palmitoyltransferase ZDHHC12 in CD8+ T cells ...

Palmitoylation regulates myelination by modulating the ZDHHC3-Cadm4 axis in the central nervous system

Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy
The downregulation of Cadm4 (Cell adhesion molecular 4) is a prominent feature in demyelination diseases, yet, the underlying molecular mechanism remains elusive.

Global, site-specific analysis of neuronal protein S-acylation

Scientific Reports, 2017
Protein S-acylation (palmitoylation) is a reversible lipid modification that is an important regulator of dynamic membrane-protein interactions. Proteomic approaches have uncovered many putative palmitoylated proteins however, methods for comprehensive ...
