Investigating the mechanisms and outcomes of Sprouty-2 S-acylation [PDF]
S-acylation is a reversible post-translational modification (PTM) that regulates proteins in several ways, including by modulating trafficking, stability and protein interactions. This PTM is mediated by twenty-three zinc finger DHHC (zDHHC) enzymes that

2-Bromopalmitate reduces protein deacylation by inhibition of acyl-protein thioesterase enzymatic activities. [PDF]
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.

New links between S-acylation and cancer
S-acylation (also known as palmitoylation) is a major post-translational protein modification in all eukaryotic cells, involving the attachment of fatty acids onto cysteine residues.

Dynamic S-acylation of IDH2 regulates mitochondrial redox homeostasis
Summary: Mitochondrial redox homeostasis is fundamental for cellular function, and its dysregulation is associated with various diseases, including cancer. Isocitrate dehydrogenase 2 (IDH2) is a key enzyme that maintains this balance by generating NADPH.

FoxO1-zDHHC4-CD36 S-Acylation Axis Drives Metabolic Dysfunction in Diabetes. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The fatty acid (FA) transporter CD36 (FA translocase/cluster of differentiation 36) is the gatekeeper of cardiac FA metabolism. Preferential localization of CD36 to the sarcolemma is one of the initiating cellular responses in the development

Technologies and Challenges in Proteomic Analysis of Protein S-acylation [PDF]
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 ...

Metabolically controlled histone H4K5 acylation/acetylation ratio drives BRD4 genomic distribution
Summary: In addition to acetylation, histones are modified by a series of competing longer-chain acylations. Most of these acylation marks are enriched and co-exist with acetylation on active gene regulatory elements.

Dynamic acylome reveals metabolite driven modifications in Syntrophomonas wolfei
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
