Enables protein-cysteine S-palmitoyltransferase activity. Involved in peptidyl-L-cysteine S-palmitoylation. Acts upstream of or within establishment of protein localization; protein palmitoylation; and synaptic vesicle maturation. Located in Golgi apparatus. Is expressed in eye. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in non-syndromic X-linked intellectual disability 91. Orthologous to human ZDHHC15 (zinc finger DHHC-type palmitoyltransferase 15).
