The landscape of renal protein S-acylation in mice with lipid-induced nephrotoxicity.

ABSTRACT: Excess fat intake is associated with kidney toxicity and dysfunction. Because fatty acids can also be reversibly attached onto cysteine residues and modulate the function of several membrane-bound proteins, we studied the effect of high-fat diet (HFD) on the S-acylated proteome of mouse kidneys to uncover novel biochemical changes that might contribute to lipid-induced nephrotoxicity. We compared the S-acylated proteome of kidneys from mice fed a chow diet (CD) or a HFD. HFD caused albuminuria. The HFD intervention induced a large-scale repression of protein S-acylation as well as of the most abundant ceramides and sphingomyelin species, which are highly suggestive of a reduction in acyl-CoA availability. The HFD-induced S-acylation repression mostly affected proteins involved in endocytos
