243983 Q9CWU2 ZDH13_MOUSE Palmitoyltransferase ZDHHC13 (EC 2.3.1.225) (Huntingtin-interacting protein 14-related protein) (HIP14-related protein) (Zinc finger DHHC domain-containing protein 13) (DHHC-13) DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE Knockdown of the expression in mice through ENU-induced stop codon in the gene or targeted knockout of the gene result is similar phenotypes (PubMed:20548961). Mutant mice are normal at birth, but by postnatal day 7 appear smaller (PubMed:20548961). They display generalized hypotrichosis and hair loss with altered skin that is loose with wrinkling and folding (PubMed:20548961). Kyphosis and osteoporosisis are also observed (PubMed:20548961). Finally, a generalized amyloid deposition results in early death (PubMed:20548961). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20548961}.
