Palmitoleoylation
Palmitoleoylation
is
type
of
protein lipidation
where the
monounsaturated fatty acid
palmitoleic acid
is
covalently
attached
to
serine
or
threonine
residues
of
proteins
.. Palmitoleoylation
appears
to
play
a significant role in
trafficking
and
targeting
and
function
of
Wnt proteins
.
O
-Palmiteoylation of
Wnt
proteins is
catalysed
by
PORCN
. The
inverse
reaction
is
done
by
NOTUM
.
