Nanobody-thioesterase chimeras to specifically target protein palmitoylation by Chien-Wen Kuo, Caglar Gök, Hannah Fulton, Eleanor Dickson-Murray, Samuel Adu, Emily K. Gallen, Sheon Mary, Alan D. Robertson, Fiona Jordan, Emma Dunning, William Mullen, Godfrey L. Smith, William Fuller

“…Using a thioesterase fused to a nanobody directed against the Ca(v)1.2 beta subunit we reduce palmitoylation of the Ca(v)1.2 alpha subunit, modifying the channel’s voltage dependence and arrhythmia susceptibility in stem cell derived cardiac myocytes. We conclude that nanobody enzyme chimeras represent an approach to specifically manipulate PTMs, with applications in both the laboratory and the clinic.…”
