DHHC-7 and -21 are palmitoylacyltransferases for sex steroid receptors

Extranuclear sex steroid receptors require palmitoylation to traffic to the plasma membrane, where they activate signal transduction cascades. We identify DHHC-7 and -21 palmitoylacyltransferases as conserved enzymes for the three classes of sex steroid receptors.
