Analysis was performed using the program CSS-Palm 3.0, available in the internet at: http://csspalm.biocuckoo.org/archive/prediction. Scores over 0 indicate palmitoylation potential and higher scores within a cluster indicates higher palmitoylation potential. Cysteine (C) 683 in GR and 447 in ER fall within the same cluster suggesting higher probability of palmitoylation for the ER.
