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 defense response to virus by host. 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 2022]
