The role of palmitoylation in signalling, cellular trafficking and plasma membrane localization of protease-activated receptor-2.
Protease-activated receptor-2 (PAR2) is a G protein coupled receptor (GPCR) activated by proteolytic cleavage of its amino terminal domain by trypsin-like serine proteases. This irreversible activation mechanism leads to rapid receptor desensitization by internalisation and degradation. We have expl...
