CellPalmSeq: A curated RNAseq database of palmitoylating and de-palmitoylating enzyme expression in human cell types and laboratory cell lines

TL;DR: The CellPalmSeq (https://cellpalmseq.med.ubc.ca), a curated RNAseq database and interactive web tool for visualization of the expression patterns of the genes that regulate palmitoylation across human single cell types, bulk tissue, cancer cell lines and commonly used laboratory non-human cell lines as discussed by the authors .

TL;DR: In this article , a comparison of predicted and experimentally determined protein structures suggests that the exclusive acylation of the Influenza B virus with palmitate is not a function of the responsible DHHCs.

Structural classification of zinc fingers: survey and summary.

TL;DR: A comprehensive classification of zinc finger spatial structures is presented and it is found that each available zinc finger structure can be placed into one of eight fold groups that are defined based on the structural properties in the vicinity of the zinc-binding site.

Skinny Hedgehog, an Acyltransferase Required for Palmitoylation and Activity of the Hedgehog Signal

TL;DR: A segment polarity gene in Drosophila melanogaster, skinny hedgehog(ski), is identified, and it is shown that its product is required in Hh-expressing cells for production of appropriate signaling activity in embryos and in the imaginal precursors of adult tissues.
