ZDHHC5 Gene Summary [Human]

Enables palmitoyltransferase activity. Involved in positive regulation of pattern recognition receptor signaling pathway and positive regulation of protein localization to plasma membrane. Acts upstream of or within protein palmitoylation. Located in phagocytic vesicle and plasma membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human ZDHHC5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
