Annotation description:Fig.8; "ABHD17 specifically mediates PSD-95 depalmitoylation in neurons. "
- "When we simultaneously knocked-down ABHD17A, 17B, and 17C by the AAV-miRNA vector (Fig. 3E), ... Importantly, triple-knockdown of ABHD17 members apparently delayed PSD-95 depalmitoylation process (Fig. 8A, B) and significantly prolonged the half-life of palmitate on PSD-95 to 4.8 ± 1.3 h (Fig. 8D). When neurons were treated with 2-BP for 2 h, the intensity of synaptic PSD-95 clusters was significantly reduced (Fig. 8E,F), indicating rapid depalmitoylation of PSD-95 at local synapses. Consistent with biochemical data, this reduction of PSD-95 clusters was significantly suppressed in neurons in which ABHD17 members were knocked-down. "

Fig.3: ABHD17A is also present in the PSD-95 fraction.
