FASLG and neoplasm: The induction of apoptosis is an efficient way to stop tumor development, many proteins involved in apoptosis are S-acylated including FasL (Fas Ligand; Guardiola-Serrano et al., 2010), FasR (Fas receptor; Chakrabandhu et al., 2007), DR4 (a receptor of the tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand; Rossin et al., 2009), DCC (deleted in colorectal cancer; Furne et al., 2006), UNC5H (Maisse et al., 2008) and BAX (BCL-2-associated X) (Fröhlich et al., 2014).
