Palmitoyl-protein thioesterase, an enzyme implicated in neurodegeneration, is localized in neurons and is developmentally regulated in rat brain

Palmitoyl-protein thioesterase (PPT) is an enzyme involved in cleavage of palmitate residues from acylated proteins. Mutations in PPT gene cause a severe neurodegenerative disorder, infantile neuronal ceroid-lipofuscinosis (INCL), characterized by loss of cortical neurons. In order to clarify the ro...
