- Note
- Nagaya, et al. (2002. Mech. Dev. (Suppl.) 119:S311-S314.) reported this gene as zdhhc5 (zisp) with orthology to human ZDHHC5 and mouse Zdhhc5, based on amino acid similarity. Subsequent analysis suggests this gene is zdhhc8b with orthology to human ZDHHC8 and mouse Zdhhc8, based on amino acid similarity and phylogenetic analysis.
