A facile assay for zDHHC palmitoyl transferase activation elucidates effects of mutation and modification [PDF]
At least 10% of proteins constituting the human proteome are subject to S-acylation by a long-chain fatty acid, thioesterified to a Cys thiol side chain.

A palmitoyl transferase chemical-genetic system to map ZDHHC-specific S-acylation. [PDF]
The 23 human zinc finger Asp-His-His-Cys motif-containing (ZDHHC) S-acyltransferases catalyze long-chain S-acylation at cysteine residues across an extensive network of hundreds of proteins important for normal physiology or dysregulated in disease. Here

Protein S-Palmitoylation as Potential Therapeutic Target for Dermatoses [PDF]
Protein S-palmitoylation is a pivotal yet poorly integrated research field in dermatology. This reversible post-translational lipid modification primarily occurs on cysteine residues and is principally catalyzed by zinc finger and Asp-His-His-Cys DHHC ...

Diverse Roles of Protein Palmitoylation in Cancer Progression, Immunity, Stemness, and Beyond [PDF]
Protein S-palmitoylation, a type of post-translational modification, refers to the reversible process of attachment of a fatty acyl chain—a 16-carbon palmitate acid—to the specific cysteine residues on target proteins.

Palmitoyl transferases act as potential regulators of tumor-infiltrating immune cells and glioma progression [PDF]
High immune-cell infiltration in glioblastomas (GBMs) leads to immunotherapy resistance. Emerging evidence has shown that zinc finger Asp-His-His-Cyc-type (ZDHHC) palmitoyl transferases participate in regulating tumor progression and the immune ...
