Abstract excerpt
Myristoylation is a type of protein acylation by which the fatty acid myristate is added to the N-terminus of target proteins, a process mediated by N-myristoyltransferases (NMT). Myristoylation is emerging as a promising cancer therapeutic target; however, the molecular determinants of sensitivity to NMT inhibition or the mechanism by which it induces cancer cell death are not completely understood. We report...
