Predicted to enable protein-cysteine S-palmitoyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in protein targeting to membrane and synaptic vesicle maturation. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in adult central nervous system; adult head; larval brain; and organism. Orthologous to several human genes including ZDHHC2 (zinc finger DHHC-type palmitoyltransferase 2) and ZDHHC20 (zinc finger DHHC-type palmitoyltransferase 20).
