Palmitoylation is a posttranslational modification that regulates protein trafficking and stability. In this study we investigated whether the endosomal soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors (SNARE) proteins syntaxin 7 and syntaxin 8 are modified with palmitate. Using metabolic labeling and site-directed mutagenesis, we show that human syntaxins 7 and 8 are modified with palmitate through a thioester linkage. Palmitoylation is dependent upon cysteine 239 of human syntaxin 7 and cysteine 214 of syntaxin 8, residues that are located on the cytoplasmic face of the transmembrane domain (TMD). Palmitoylation of syntaxin 8 is minimally affected by the Golgi-disturbing agent brefeldin A (BFA), whereas BFA dramatically inhibits palmitoylation of syntaxin7. The differential effect of BFA suggests that palmitoylation of syntaxins 7 and 8 occurs in distinct subcellular compartments. Palmitoylation does not affect the rate of protein turnover of syntaxins 7 and 8 nor does it influence the steady-state localization of syntaxin 8 in late endosomes. Syntaxin 7 actively cycles between endosomes and the plasma membrane. Palmitoylation-defective syntaxin 7 is selectively retained on the plasma membrane, suggesting that palmitoylation is important for intercompartmental transport of syntaxin 7.
