Primary Identifier | MGI:1921418 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 19 | NCBI Gene Number | 74168 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables palmitoyltransferase activity. Involved in several processes, including DNA damage response; eye development; and protein palmitoylation. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; eye; genitourinary system; heart; and trunk somite. Orthologous to human ZDHHC16 (zinc finger DHHC-type palmitoyltransferase 16). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null mutation display prenatal and neonatal lethality with bradycardia, abnormal heart morphology and eye defects. [provided by MGI curators] |
