S-acylation is a reversible lipid modification occurring on cysteine residues mediated by a family of membrane-bound 'zDHHC' enzymes. S-acylation predominantly results in anchoring of soluble proteins to membrane compartments or in the trafficking of membrane proteins to different compartments. Recent work has shown that although S-acylation of some proteins may involve very weak interactions w...
Several members of the Src family of protein tyrosine kinases have a N-terminal dual acylation motif which specifies their myristoylation and S-acylation. These lipid modifications are necessary for correct intracellular localisation to the plasma membrane and to detergent-resistant glycolipid-enriched membrane domains (GEMs). Using chimaeras of the Lck dual acylation motif with two normally cy...
Protein palmitoylation or, more specifically, S-acylation is a reversible post-translational lipid modification. Despite the identification of several proteins that are altered in this way, our understanding of the enzymology of this process has been hampered by the lack of well-characterized acyltransferases. We now know of three proteins in Saccharomyces cerevisiae that promote palmitoylation...
A basic monomeric phospholipase A2 from the venom of the American water moccasin, Agkistrodon piscivorus piscivorus, undergoes Ca2+-dependent, autocatalytic acylation during the course of hydrolysis of both model and natural phospholipid substrates. Acylation occurs at 2 lysine residues, Lys-7 and Lys-10, in the NH2-terminal alpha-helical segment of the enzyme, and when both positions are fully...
Membranes are an important signalling platform in plants. The plasma membrane is the point where information about the external environment must be converted into intracellular signals, while endomembranes are important sites of protein trafficking, organization, compartmentalization, and intracellular signalling. This requires co-ordinating the spatial distribution of proteins, their activatio...
NH2-terminal glycine myristyl acylation is a cotranslational modification that affects both protein localization and function. However, several proteins that lack NH2-terminal glycine residues, including the interleukin 1 (IL-1) precursors, also contain covalently linked myristate. To date, the site(s) of acylation of these proteins has not been determined. During an evaluation of IL-1 acylatio...
Histone lysine acylation is a major class of histone post-translational modifications involved in essential biological activities, such as transcriptional regulation, DNA-damage repair, and cell-cycle progression. Abnormal strongly associated with various diseases, cancer. Thus, acetyltransferases (HATs), the “writers” that catalyze acylation, are promising targets for cancer treatment. Rapid d...
The insulin-responsive aminopeptidase (IRAP) was recently identified as an S-acylated protein in adipocytes and other tissues. However, there is currently no information on the extent of S-acylation of this protein, the residues that are modified, or the effects of S-acylation on IRAP localisation. In this study, we employ a semi-quantitative acyl-RAC technique to show that approximately 60% of...
The functional significance and regulation of reversible S-acylation on diverse proteins remain unclear because of limited methods for efficient quantitative analysis of palmitate turnover. Here, we describe a tandem labeling and detection method to simultaneously monitor dynamic S-palmitoylation and protein turnover. By combining S-acylation and cotranslational fatty acid chemical reporters wi...
P.sub.2][O.sub.5]/[H.sub.3]P[O.sub.4] (PPA) was found to be an efficient new reagent for probing the mechanism of acylation reactions and Fries rearrangement of acyloxy benzene derivatives and also the direct acylation reactions of phenol derivatives with Carboxylic acids. The reactions proceeded smoothly in the presence of PPA and are highly selective for the preparation of the ortho isomers o...
