Key Points
A large repertoire of eukaryotic proteins, termed prenylated proteins, are subject to post-translational modification by isoprenoid lipids.
The attached lipid can markedly affect the cellular location of the prenylated protein, as well as its function.
Prenylated proteins have been implicated in diseases ranging from cancer to i...
