The ERα membrane pool modulates the proliferation of pituitary tumours
(BioScientifica, 2019-02)
The molecular mechanisms underlying the ERα nuclear/cytoplasmic pool that modulates pituitary cell proliferation have been widely described, but it is still not clear how ERα is targeted to the plasma membrane. The aim of ...
Ganglioside glycosyltransferases are S-acylated at conserved cysteine residues involved in homodimerisation
(Portland Press, 2017-08)
Ganglioside glycosyltransferases (GGTs) are type II membrane proteins bearing a short N-terminal cytoplasmic tail, a transmembrane domain (TMD), and a lumenal catalytic domain. The expression and activity of these enzymes ...
Protein palmitoylation plays an important role in Trichomonas vaginalis adherence
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2018-11)
The flagellated protozoan parasite Trichomonas vaginalis is the etiologic agent of trichomoniasis, the most common non-viral sexually transmitted infection worldwide. As an obligate extracellular pathogen, adherence to ...
Study of nsLTPs in Lotus japonicus genome reveal a specific epidermal cell member (LjLTP10) regulated by drought stress in aerial organs with a putative role in cutin formation
(SPRINGER, VAN GODEWIJCKSTRAAT 30, 3311 GZ DORDRECHT, NETHERLANDS, 2013)
Palmitoylation of the feline immunodeficiency virus envelope glycoprotein and its effect on fusion activity and envelope incorporation into virions
(Universidad de Belgrano - Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales - Proyectos de Investigación, 2012)
The feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) envelope glycoprotein (Env) possesses a short cytoplasmic
domain of 53 amino acids containing four highly conserved cysteines at Env positions 804, 811, 815 and
848. Since ...
PtdIns4P-mediated electrostatic forces influence S-acylation of peripheral proteins at the Golgi complex
(Portland Press, 2020-01)
Protein S-acylation is a reversible post-translational modification involving the addition of fatty acids to cysteines and is catalyzed by transmembrane protein acyltransferases (PATs) mainly expressed at the Golgi complex. ...
The canonical DHHC motif is not absolutely required for the activity of the yeast S-acyltransferases Swf1 and Pfa4
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2015-09)
Protein S-acyltransferases, also known as palmitoyltransferases (PATs), are characterized by the presence of a 50-amino acid domain called the DHHC domain. Within this domain, these four amino acids constitute a highly ...
