About ZDHHC2

Cytogenetic location: 8p22 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 8:17,156,482-17,224,799 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 210 orthologues and 17 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in thyroid (RPKM 18.6), adrenal (RPKM 10.6) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

Enables protein homodimerization activity and protein-cysteine S-palmitoyltransferase activity. Involved in several processes, including peptidyl-L-cysteine S-palmitoylation; regulation of protein catabolic process; and regulation of protein localization to plasma membrane. Located in Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
