Gene Ontology Information

Protein Name	Akr1p
Description	Palmitoyl transferase involved in protein palmitoylation; acts as a negative regulator of pheromone response pathway; required for endocytosis of pheromone receptors; involved in cell shape control; contains ankyrin repeats; AKR1 has a paralog, AKR2, that arose from the whole genome duplication; any of several human homologs encoding DHHC-type zinc fingers (ZDHHC) can complement temperature sensitivity of yeast akr1 null mutant
GO Terms: Biological Process	level 6: regulation of endocytosis level 6: protein targeting to membrane level 7: protein palmitoylation level 7: negative regulation of pheromone-dependent signal transduction involved in conjugation with cellular fusion
