2-Bromopalmitate reduces protein deacylation by inhibition of acyl-protein thioesterase enzymatic activities.
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. S-acylation is catalyzed by protein acyltransferases (PAT), while deacylation requires acyl-protein thioeste...
