Zdhhc1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable protein-cysteine S-palmitoyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including antiviral innate immune response; peptidyl-L-cysteine S-palmitoylation; and positive regulation of protein-containing complex assembly. Predicted to act upstream of or within protein palmitoylation. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane and endosome membrane. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum. Orthologous to human ZDHHC1 (zinc finger DHHC-type containing 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

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 Zdhhc1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
