| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables protein-cysteine S-myristoyltransferase activity; protein-cysteine S-palmitoyltransferase activity; and protein-cysteine S-stearoyltransferase activity. Involved in peptidyl-L-cysteine S-palmitoylation; protein localization to membrane; and synapse assembly. Acts upstream of or within protein palmitoylation. Located in plasma membrane; postsynaptic recycling endosome; and recycling endosome membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; genitourinary system; nervous system; pancreas tip epithelium; and retina. Orthologous to human ZDHHC2 (zinc finger DHHC-type palmitoyltransferase 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit decreased susceptibility to imiquimod-induced psoriasis.
