motifs/domains
  • a conserved Cys 4 zinc-finger like metal binding domain
  • a complex Cys-His region
  • DHHC/NEW1 domain, potentially involved in protein-protein or protein-DNA interaction
  • ER targeting signal in DHHC6 is conform to a KKXX motif, C-terminal pentapeptide sequences required for ER localization of DHHC4 and DHHC6
    • HOMOLOGY
    interspecies homolog to Drosophila DNZ1
    Homologene
    FAMILY
  • DHHC palmitoyltransferase family
  • DHHC/NEW1 subfamily
    • CATEGORY enzyme , DNA associated
