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

S-acylation of P2K1 mediates extracellular ATP-induced immune signaling in Arabidopsis
Nature Communications, 2021 S-acylation is a reversible protein post-translational modification that often regulates protein function at the plasma membrane. Here the authors show that an Arabidopsis extracellular ATP receptor P2K1 mediates phosphorylation of two S-acyltransferases

Accessory proteins of the zDHHC family of S-acylation enzymes [PDF]
Journal of Cell Science, 2020 ABSTRACT Almost two decades have passed since seminal work in Saccharomyces cerevisiae identified zinc finger DHHC domain-containing (zDHHC) enzymes as S-acyltransferases. These enzymes are ubiquitous in the eukarya domain, with 23 distinct zDHHC-encoding genes in the human genome.

2-Bromopalmitate reduces protein deacylation by inhibition of acyl-protein thioesterase enzymatic activities. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 S-acylation, the covalent attachment of palmitate and other fatty acids on cysteine residues, is a reversible post-translational modification that exerts diverse effects on protein functions.

Site-specific analysis of protein S-acylation by resin-assisted capture[S]
Journal of Lipid Research, 2011 Protein S-acylation is a major posttranslational modification whereby a cysteine thiol is converted to a thioester. A prototype is S-palmitoylation (fatty acylation), in which a protein undergoes acylation with a hydrophobic 16 carbon lipid chain ...

Distinct Roles of N-Terminal Fatty Acid Acylation of the Salinity-Sensor Protein SOS3
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 The Salt-Overly-Sensitive (SOS) pathway controls the net uptake of sodium by roots and the xylematic transfer to shoots in vascular plants. SOS3/CBL4 is a core component of the SOS pathway that senses calcium signaling of salinity stress to activate and ...

Technologies and Challenges in Proteomic Analysis of Protein S-acylation [PDF]
Journal of Proteomics & Bioinformatics, 2014 Protein S-acylation (also called palmitoylation) is a pervasive post-translational modification that plays critical roles in regulating protein trafficking, localization, stability, activity, and complex formation. The past decade has witnessed tremendous advances in the study of protein S-acylation, largely owing to the development of novel S ...

S‐acylation: an orchestrator of the life cycle and function of membrane proteins
The FEBS Journal, 2023 S‐acylation is a covalent post‐translational modification of proteins with fatty acids, achieved by enzymatic attachment via a labile thioester bond. This modification allows for dynamic control of protein properties and functions in association with cell membranes. This lipid modification regulates a substantial portion of the human proteome and plays

Dynamic acylome reveals metabolite driven modifications in Syntrophomonas wolfei
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Syntrophomonas wolfei is an anaerobic syntrophic microbe that degrades short-chain fatty acids to acetate, hydrogen, and/or formate. This thermodynamically unfavorable process proceeds through a series of reactive acyl-Coenzyme A species (RACS). In other
