Protein and peptide acylating MBOATs. GOAT acylates the peptide hormone ghrelin and prefers octanoyl-CoA as the acyl donor. Hedgehog (PBD: 6RVD) first gets modified with a cholesterol moiety (green) then gets acylated by HHAT with a preference for palmitoyl-CoA. Wnt (PDB: 4F0A) is acylated by PORCN using palmitoleoyl-CoA.
