EC 3.1.1.98

Accepted name: [Wnt protein] O-palmitoleoyl-L-serine hydrolase

Reaction: [Wnt]-O-(9Z)-hexadec-9-enoyl-L-serine + H2O = [Wnt]-L-serine + (9Z)-hexadec-9-enoate

Glossary: (9Z)-hexadec-9-enoate = palmitoleoate

Other name(s): Notum

Systematic name: [Wnt]-O-(9Z)-hexadec-9-enoyl-L-serine acylhydrolase

Comments: The enzyme removes the palmitoleate modification that is introduced to specific L-serine residues in Wnt proteins by EC 2.3.1.250, [Wnt protein]-O-palmitoleoyl transferase.
