Gene Symbol:

NAT8 Homo sapiens

Full name:

N-acetyltransferase 8 (putative)

Synonyms:

ATase2, CCNAT, CML1, GLA, Hcml1, TSC501, TSC510, N-acetyltransferase 8, N-acetyltransferase 8 (GCN5-related, putative), N-acetyltransferase 8 (camello like), acetyltransferase 2, camello-like protein 1, cysteinyl-conjugate N-acetyltransferase, kidney- and liver-specific gene product, probable N-acetyltransferase 8

Genomic Location:

Chr 2: 73721358-73723045

Description:

This gene, isolated using the differential display method to detect tissue-specific genes, is specifically expressed in kidney and liver. The encoded protein shows amino acid sequence similarity to N-acetyltransferases. A similar protein in Xenopus affects cell adhesion and gastrulation movements, and may be localized in the secretory pathway. A hi...

View Full Description

This gene, isolated using the differential display method to detect tissue-specific genes, is specifically expressed in kidney and liver. The encoded protein shows amino acid sequence similarity to N-acetyltransferases. A similar protein in Xenopus affects cell adhesion and gastrulation movements, and may be localized in the secretory pathway. A highly similar paralog is found in a cluster with this gene.
