Summary
Predicted to enable protein-cysteine S-palmitoyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in peptidyl-L-cysteine S-palmitoylation and protein targeting to membrane. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum. Orthologous to human ZDHHC21 (zinc finger DHHC-type palmitoyltransferase 21). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
