Gene information for NAT8 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID9027
Official gene symbolNAT8
Full nameN-acetyltransferase 8 (GCN5-related, putative)
Aliases,CML1,GLA,Hcml1,TSC501,TSC510,
Gene summaryThis 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.
