The encoded protein may function as a palmitoyltransferase. Defects in this gene may be associated with a susceptibility to schizophrenia. Alternate splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 22.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010] Expression Ubiquitous expression in fat (RPKM 6.8), spleen (RPKM 6.7) and 25 other tissues See more Orthologs mouse all
