Overview of Gene Research
ZDHHC9, also known as Zinc Finger DHHC-Type Containing 9 protein, functions as a palmitoyltransferase. Palmitoylation, a protein post-translational modification it mediates, is involved in various signaling pathways, playing a key role in biological processes and disease development [6].
In cancer, ZDHHC9 has been found to be oncogenic. In bladder cancer, its knockdown inhibits tumor proliferation, promotes apoptosis, and enhances drug efficacy. Mechanistically, it binds to and palmitoylates Bip protein at Cys420, inhibiting the unfolded protein response [1]. In colon cancer, inhibition of ZDHHC9 expression promotes in-vitro cancer cell proliferation but decreases in-vivo growth, and enhances CD8+ T-cell-mediated cytotoxicity [3]. In pancreatic cancer, knockdown of ZDHHC9 suppresses tumor progression by modifying the tumor microenvironment and sensitizes anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy [4]. In lung adenocarcinoma, ZDHHC9 deficiency inhibits cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, and promotes apoptosis. ZDHHC9 knockdown also reduces PD-L1 palmitoylation, promoting its degradation and enhancing anti-tumor immunity [8]. In glioblastoma, knockout of DHHC9 (ZDHHC9) abrogates GLUT1 palmitoylation, impairs glycolysis, cell proliferation, and tumorigenesis [7]. In cardiomyocytes, zDHHC9 palmitoylates Rab3gap1, regulating Rab3a activity and atrial natriuretic peptide secretion, which may be exploited for heart-failure treatment [2]. Regarding gasdermin D, ZDHHC9 is one of the major palmitoyltransferases mediating its palmitoylation, which is important for pyroptosis-related pore formation [5,9].
In conclusion, ZDHHC9, as a palmitoyltransferase, is crucial in multiple biological processes. Its role in various diseases, especially cancers and heart-related conditions, has been revealed through loss-of-function experiments. These findings suggest ZDHHC9 could be a potential therapeutic target for treating bladder, colon, pancreatic, lung, and glioblastoma cancers, as well as heart failure.
