Protein Structure

UniProt Annotation

Function

Palmitoylates sex steroid hormone receptors, including ESR1, PGR and AR, thereby regulating their targeting to the plasma membrane. This affects rapid intracellular signaling by sex hormones via ERK and AKT kinases and the generation of cAMP, but does not affect that mediated by their nuclear receptor (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.

Subcellular Localization

Membrane {ECO:0000305}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}. Golgi apparatus {ECO:0000250}.
