Palmitoylation of a G protein alpha i subunit requires membrane localization not myristoylation.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 9 Dec 1994

Degtyarev M Y, Spiegel A M, Jones T L

Abstract excerpt

Palmitoylation is a dynamic, post-translational modification of the amino terminus of heterotrimeric G protein alpha subunits. Since myristoylation, beta gamma interactions, and membrane attachment also involve the amino terminus of the G protein alpha i1 subunit, we studied the relationships bet...
