Mechanisms and functions of protein S-acylation [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology
Over the past two decades, protein S-acylation (often referred to as S-palmitoylation) has emerged as an important regulator of vital signalling pathways. S-Acylation is a reversible post-translational modification that involves the attachment of a fatty acid to a protein.

Ion channel regulation by protein S-acylation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Physiology, 2014
Protein S-acylation, the reversible covalent fatty-acid modification of cysteine residues, has emerged as a dynamic posttranslational modification (PTM) that controls the diversity, life cycle, and physiological function of numerous ligand- and voltage-gated ion channels.

Improvement of plant resistance to geminiviruses via protein de-S-acylation

open access: yesStress Biology
Geminiviruses are an important group of viruses that infect a variety of plants and result in heavy agricultural losses worldwide. The homologs of C4 (or L4) in monopartite geminiviruses and AC4 (or AL4) in bipartite geminiviruses are critical viral ...

Protocol for evaluating S-acylated protein membrane affinity using protein-lipid conjugates

open access: yesSTAR Protocols
Summary: S-acylation of proteins allows their association with membranes. Here, we present a protocol for establishing a platform for membrane affinity evaluation of S-acylated proteins in vitro. We describe steps for preparing lipid-maleimide compounds,

Detection of Protein S-Acylation using Acyl-Resin Assisted Capture. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Vis Exp, 2020
Protein S-acylation, also referred to as S-palmitoylation, is a reversible post-translational modification of cysteine residues with long-chain fatty acids via a labile thioester bond. S-acylation, which is emerging as a widespread regulatory mechanism, can modulate almost all aspects of the biological activity of proteins, from complex formation to ...

The physiology of protein S-acylation. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysiol Rev, 2015
Protein S-acylation, the only fully reversible posttranslational lipid modification of proteins, is emerging as a ubiquitous mechanism to control the properties and function of a diverse array of proteins and consequently physiological processes. S-acylation results from the enzymatic addition of long-chain lipids, most typically palmitate, onto ...

Progress toward Understanding Protein S-acylation: Prospective in Plants. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Plant Sci, 2017
S-acylation, also known as S-palmitoylation or palmitoylation, is a reversible post-translational lipid modification in which long chain fatty acid, usually the 16-carbon palmitate, covalently attaches to a cysteine residue(s) throughout the protein via a thioester bond.

Palmitoylation: a protein S-acylation with implications for breast cancer. [PDF]

open access: yesNPJ Breast Cancer, 2016
AbstractProtein S-acylation is a reversible post-translational lipid modification that involves linkage of a fatty acid chain predominantly to a cysteine amino acid via a thioester bond. The fatty acid molecule is primarily palmitate, thus the term ‘palmitoylation’ is more commonly used.

FASN inhibitor TVB-3166 prevents S-acylation of the spike protein of human coronaviruses

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2022
The spike protein of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and other coronaviruses mediates host cell entry and is S-acylated on multiple phylogenetically conserved cysteine residues.
