Abstract
Su et al. show that mevalonate metabolism-driven protein geranylgeranylation and farnesylation orchestrate the respective differentiation and maintenance of effector Treg cells, by serving as rheostats for immunological receptor, mTORC1, and Rac signaling. These data establish a crucial role for metabolism-dependent posttranslational lipid modifications in Treg cell-mediated immune suppression.
