ZDHHC3 and congestive heart failure: Notably, cardiomyopathy and congestive heart failure in zDHHC3 transgenic mice is preceded by enhanced Rac1 S-palmitoylation, membrane localization, activity, downstream hypertrophic signaling, and concomitant induction of all Rho family small GTPases whereas mice overexpressing an enzymatically dead zDHHC3 mutant show no discernible effect.
