ABHD13

Chr 13

abhydrolase domain containing 13

Also known as: BEM46L1, C13orf6, bA153I24.2

The ABHD13 protein functions as a palmitoyl-(protein) hydrolase that removes palmitate groups from proteins through depalmitoylation. This gene is highly constrained against loss-of-function variants (pLI 0.89, LOEUF 0.41), suggesting mutations would likely cause significant disease, though no specific genetic disorders have been definitively associated with ABHD13 mutations to date.
