Alias: | DHHC-13; FLJ10852; FLJ10941; HIP14L; HIP14-related protein; Huntingtin-interacting protein 14 related protein; Huntingtin-interacting protein HIP3RP; MAPK-activating protein PM03; NF-kappa-B-activating protein 209; Palmitoyltransferase ZDHHC13; ZDH13; Zinc finger DHHC domain-containing protein 13; Zinc finger, DHHC-type containing 13 |
Mass (Da): | 70889 |
Number AA: | 622 |
UniProt ID: | Q8IUH4 |
Locus ID: | 54503 |
COSMIC ID: | ZDHHC13 |
Gene location on chromosome: | 11p15.1 |
Number of cancer specimens: | 19625 |
Percent of cancer specimens with mutations: | 0.25 |
Commentary on involvement of protein in cancer: | Palmitoyltransferase specific for a subset of neuronal proteins, including SNAP25, DLG4/PSD95, GAD2, SYT1 and HD. May be involved in the sorting or targeting of critical proteins involved in the initiating events of endocytosis at the plasma membrane. Has transforming activity. Mediates Mg2+ transport. |
