autopalmitoilálódik
Autopalmitoilálódik is a Hungarian term that describes a process of self-palmitoylation. Palmitoylation is a type of post-translational modification where a palmitoyl group, a fatty acid, is attached to a protein. This modification is typically carried out by specific enzymes that catalyze the formation of a thioester bond between the cysteine residue of the protein and the palmitoyl group. In contrast, autopalmitoylation refers to the phenomenon where a protein itself, or a domain within the protein, possesses the enzymatic activity to attach a palmitoyl group to itself or to other proteins.
This self-modification can occur through various mechanisms. Some proteins contain cysteine residues that are both substrates
