Thematic review series: Lipid Posttranslational Modifications. Lysosomal metabolism of lipid-modified proteins

Much is now understood concerning the synthesis of prenylated and palmitoylated proteins, but what is known of their metabolic fate? This review details metabolic pathways for the lysosomal degradation of S-fatty acylated and prenylated proteins. Central to these pathways are two lysosomal enzymes,...
