High impact information on ZDHHC3

  • Collectively, our data describe five new Golgi-targeted DHHC enzymes in human endothelial cells and suggest a regulatory role of DHHC-21 in governing eNOS localization and function [1].
  • Transfection of human embryonic kidney 293 cells with the complementary DNA (cDNA) for eNOS and 23 cDNA clones encoding the Asp-His-His-Cys motif (DHHC) palmitoyl transferase family members showed that five clones (2, 3, 7, 8, and 21) enhanced incorporation of [3H]-palmitate into eNOS [1].
  • TIP1 encodes an ankyrin repeat protein with a DHHC Cys-rich domain that is expressed in roots, leaves, inflorescence stems, and floral tissue [2].
  • DHHC9 is an integral membrane protein that contains a DHHC cysteine-rich domain [3].
  • Numerous genes encoding DHHC domain proteins are found in all eukaryotic genome databases [4].
 

Biological context of ZDHHC3

 

Anatomical context of ZDHHC3

  • Most DHHC proteins are localized in the ER and/or Golgi, with a few localized in the plasma membrane and one in the yeast vacuole [6].
