Zdhhc9 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable Ras palmitoyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including peptidyl-L-cysteine S-palmitoylation; positive regulation by host of viral process; and positive regulation of defense response. Predicted to be located in Golgi membrane and cytosol. Predicted to be part of palmitoyltransferase complex. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in syndromic X-linked intellectual disability Raymond type. Orthologous to human ZDHHC9 (zinc finger DHHC-type palmitoyltransferase 9).

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 rat Zdhhc9 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
