  2. Palmitoylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palmitoylation

    Palmitoylation of Gephyrin Controls Receptor Clustering and Plasticity of GABAergic Synapses [1] In molecular biology, palmitoylation is the covalent attachment of fatty acids, such as palmitic acid, to cysteine (S-palmitoylation) and less frequently to serine and threonine (O-palmitoylation) residues of proteins, which are typically membrane ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedgehog_pathway_inhibitor

    RU-SKI 43 inhibits the activity of SHHat, an enzyme that catalyzes the palmitoylation of Shh. [56] Since palmitoylation is essential for the activity of Shh, [57] inhibition of SHHat by RU-SKI 43 inhibits Shh signaling in cancer cells. [58] [59] 5E1, a monoclonal antibody against Shh, has been shown to inhibit medulloblastoma growth in mouse ...

  4. Lipid-anchored protein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lipid-anchored_protein

    Palmitoylation. S-palmitoylation (i.e. attachment of palmitic acid) is a reversible protein modification in which a palmitic acid is attached to a specific cysteine residue via thioester linkage. [2] [11] The term S-acylation can also be used when other medium and long fatty acids chains are also attached to palmitoylated proteins.

  5. Palmitoleoylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palmitoleoylation

    In palmitoleoylation, a palmitoleoyl group (derived from palmitoleic acid, pictured above) is added.. Palmitoleoylation is type of protein lipidation where the monounsaturated fatty acid palmitoleic acid is covalently attached to serine or threonine residues of proteins.

  6. DHHC domain - Wikipedia

    Further studies in 2009 showed that of the 5 classes studied, 2-(2-hydroxy-5-nitro-benzylidene)-benzo[b]thiophen-3-one was shown to behave similarly to 2-Bromopalmitate and were identified as able to inhibit the palmitoylation reaction of a range of DHHC domain containing proteins.

    palmitoylation (a type of acylation), attachment of palmitate, a C 16 saturated acid; isoprenylation or prenylation, the addition of an isoprenoid group (e.g. farnesol and geranylgeraniol) farnesylation; geranylgeranylation; glypiation, glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor formation via an amide bond to C-terminal tail
