    AKT phosphorylates ZDHHC5 at Ser345 and Ser380, enhancing its activity and promoting NOD1 palmitoylation.

  • 2

    Growth factors and insulin positively regulate NOD1 activation through the AKT-ZDHHC5-NOD1 signaling axis.

  • 3

    NOD1 activation is crucial for initiating innate immune responses against bacterial peptidoglycan.

  • 4

    Disruption of AKT-dependent ZDHHC5 phosphorylation impairs NOD1 palmitoylation and downstream inflammatory signaling.

  • 5

    The AKT-ZDHHC5 pathway may serve as a target for modulating NOD1-driven inflammatory diseases.
