S-Acylation of the cellulose synthase complex is essential for its plasma membrane localization. [PDF]
Plant cellulose microfibrils are synthesized by a process that propels the cellulose synthase complex (CSC) through the plane of the plasma membrane. How interactions between membranes and the CSC are regulated is currently unknown.

Acylation – A New Means to Control Traffic Through the Golgi
The Golgi is well known to act as center for modification and sorting of proteins for secretion and delivery to other organelles. A key sorting step occurs at the trans-Golgi network and is mediated by protein adapters. However, recent data indicate that

Disruption of the Zdhhc9 intellectual disability gene leads to behavioural abnormalities in a mouse [PDF]
Protein S-acylation is a widespread post-translational modification that regulates the trafficking and function of a diverse array of proteins. This modification is catalysed by a family of twenty-three zDHHC enzymes that exhibit both specific and ...

S-acylation of the Wnt receptor Frizzled-5 by zDHHC5 controls its cellular localization and synaptogenic activity in the rodent hippocampus [PDF]
Proper localization of receptors for synaptic organizing factors is crucial for synapse formation. Wnt proteins promote synapse assembly through Frizzled (Fz) receptors. In hippocampal neurons, the surface and synaptic localization of Fz5 is regulated by

Transition-metal-free trifluoromethylthiolation–acylation of arynes by insertion into the C–S bonds
An efficient procedure to access to ortho-SCF3 substituted benzophenones from arynes and trifluoromethylthioesters has been developed under transition-metal free conditions. This difunctionalization process involves the first insertion of arynes into the

A novel pathway for lipid biosynthesis: the direct acylation of glycerol
The acylation of glycerol-3-phosphate by acyl-CoA is regarded as the first committed step for the synthesis of the lipoidal moiety in glycerolipids. The direct acylation of glycerol in mammalian tissues has not been demonstrated.
