Background InformationSix genes in the 1.5 Mb region of chromosome 22 deleted in DiGeorge/22q11 deletion syndrome–Mrpl40, Prodh, Slc25a1, Txnrd2, T10, and Zdhhc8–encode mitochondrial proteins. All six genes are expressed in the
brain, and maximal expression coincides with peak forebrain synaptogenesis shortly after birth. Furthermore, their protein products are associated with brain mitochondria, including those in synaptic terminals. Among the six, only Zddhc8 influences mitochondria-regulated apoptosis when overexpressed, and appears to interact biochemically with established mitochondrial proteins. Zdhhc8 has an apparent interaction with Uqcrc1, a component of mitochondrial complex III. The two proteins are coincidently expressed in pre-synaptic processes; however, Zdhhc8 is more frequently seen in glutamatergic terminals (1).

UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: Putative palmitoyltransferase involved in glutamatergic transmission By similarity.

Catalytic activity Palmitoyl-CoA + protein-cysteine = S-palmitoyl protein + CoA.

SUBCELLULAR:Cytoplasmic vesicle membrane; Multi-pass membrane proteinPotential.

DOMAIN: The DHHC domain is required for palmitoyltransferase activity By similarity.

DISEASE: According to Ref.6 and Ref.7, defects in ZDHHC8 may contribute to susceptibility to schizophrenia, but according to Ref.8, Ref.9 and Ref.10, it is not the case.

SIMILARITY: Belongs to the DHHC palmitoyltransferase family. ERF2/ZDHHC9 subfamily.

Contains 1 DHHC-type zinc finger.
