Summary Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
This gene encodes a four transmembrane protein that is a member of the zinc finger DHHC domain-containing protein family. The encoded protein may function as a palmitoyltransferase. Defects in this gene may be associated with a susceptibility to schizophr

UniProt ID Q9ULC8
Protein name Palmitoyltransferase ZDHHC8 (EC 2.3.1.225) (Zinc finger DHHC domain-containing protein 8) (DHHC-8) (Zinc finger protein 378)
Protein function Palmitoyltransferase that catalyzes the addition of palmitate onto various protein substrates and therefore functions in several unrelated biological processes (Probable). Through the palmitoylation of ABCA1 regulates the localization of the tra
