Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables protein homodimerization activity and protein-cysteine S-palmitoyltransferase activity. Involved in positive regulation of GABAergic synaptic transmission; positive regulation of receptor localization to synapse; and regulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within protein targeting. Located in Golgi apparatus. Is expressed in central nervous system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; and ileum. Orthologous to human ZDHHC3 (zinc finger DHHC-type palmitoyltransferase 3).
