Protein fatty-acylation in eukaryotes has been associated with many fundamental biological processes. However, the diversity, abundance and regulatory mechanisms of protein fatty-acylation in vivo remain to be explored. Herein, we review the proteomic analysis of fatty-acylated proteins, with a focus on N-myristoylation and S-palmitoylation. We then highlight major challenges and emerging methods for direct site identification, quantitation, and lipid structure characterization to understand the functions and regulatory mechanisms of fatty-acylated proteins in physiology and disease.
真核生物中的蛋白质脂肪酰化与许多基本生物学过程相关。然而,体内蛋白质脂肪酰化的多样性、丰度和调控机制仍有待探索。在此,我们综述了脂肪酰化蛋白质的蛋白质组学分析,重点关注N-肉豆蔻酰化和S-棕榈酰化。然后,我们强调了直接位点鉴定、定量和脂质结构表征的主要挑战及新兴方法,以了解脂肪酰化蛋白质在生理和疾病中的功能及调控机制。
