PPT-1 is a member of the palmitoyl protein thioesterase family. The protein encoded by this gene is a small glycoprotein involved in the catabolism of lipid-modified proteins during lysosomal degradation. The encoded enzyme removes thioester-linked fatty acyl groups such as palmitate from cysteine residues. Defects in this gene are a cause of infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 1 (CLN1, or INCL) and neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 4 (CLN4). Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePotential confounders:\u003c\/strong\u003e isoforms, proteolytic processing, and PTMs can change epitope presentation and apparent size; fixation\/denaturation state can also expose or mask epitopes.
