A systematic study of palmitoylation using the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans
Palmitoylation is a reversible post-translational modification of proteins which involves the addition of the C16 saturated fatty acid palmitic acid to sulfhydryl groups on cysteine residues, forming a thioester linkage. The addition of palmitate allows proteins to associate with different cellular...
