Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** ZDHHC8 is a zinc finger DHHC-type palmitoyltransferase, a type of enzyme that catalyzes the post-translational modification of cysteine residues in proteins, leading to their palmitoylation. This post-translational modification plays a critical role in regulating protein localization, protein-protein interactions, and signaling pathways. The unique characteristics of ZDHHC8, including its specificity for palmitoyltransferase activity and its involvement in various cellular processes, make it an attractive target for further investigation. **Pathways and Functions:** ZDHHC8 is implicated in several cellular pathways, including: 1. **Protein Palmitoylation**: ZDHHC8 is responsible for palmitoylating cysteine residues in proteins, which is essential for regulating protein localization, protein-protein interactions, and signaling pathways. 2. **Cholesterol Efflux**: ZDHHC8 has been shown to positively regulate cholesterol efflux, a critical process in maintaining lipid homeostasis and preventing atherosclerosis. 3. **Viral Infection Pathways**: ZDHHC8 is involved in the regulation of viral infection pathways, including the maturation of spike proteins and the positive regulation of viral replication. 4. **Immune Response**: ZDHHC8 is expressed in various immune cells, including GABAergic interneurons, cardiac muscle myoblasts, and intestinal epithelial cells, suggesting its potential role in regulating immune responses. **Clinical Significance:** The identification of ZDHHC8 as a key regulator of protein localization, cholesterol efflux, and viral infection pathways has significant implications for the understanding and treatment of various diseases, including: 1. **Atherosclerosis**: ZDHHC8's involvement in cholesterol efflux makes it a potential target for the development of novel therapeutic strategies for preventing and treating atherosclerosis. 2. **Viral Infections**: ZDHHC8's role in regulating viral infection pathways makes it a potential target for the development of antiviral therapies. 3. **Immunological Disorders**: ZDHHC8's expression in immune cells suggests its potential role in regulating immune responses, making it a potential target for the development of novel immunotherapies. In conclusion, ZDHHC8 is a critical regulator of protein localization, cholesterol efflux, and viral infection pathways, with significant implications for the understanding and treatment of various diseases. Further investigation into the functional significance of ZDHHC8 is necessary to fully elucidate its role in immunological processes and to develop novel therapeutic strategies.

Database document:

This is a preview of the gene's schema. Only a few entries are kept for 'singleCellExpressions,' 'mRNAExpressions,' and other large data arrays for visualization purposes. You can zoom in with the mouse wheel for a closer view, and the text will adjust automatically if necessary. For the full schema, download it here.
