NAA40

Gene Information
  • Official Symbol: N/AA40
  • Official Name: N-alpha-acetyltransferase 40, NatD catalytic subunit
  • Aliases and Previous Symbols: N/A
  • Entrez ID: 79829
  • UniProt: Q86UY6
  • Interactions: BioGRID
  • PubMed articles: Open PubMed
  • OMIM: Open OMIM
Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: N/A
  • UniProt Summary: N-alpha-acetyltransferase that specifically mediates the acetylation of the N-terminal residues of histones H4 and H2A (PubMed:21935442, PubMed:25619998). In contrast to other N-alpha- acetyltransferase, has a very specific selectivity for histones H4 and H2A N-terminus and specifically recognizes the 'Ser-Gly-Arg- Gly sequence' (PubMed:21935442, PubMed:25619998). Acts as a negative regulator of apoptosis (PubMed:26666750). May play a role in hepatic lipid metabolism (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8VE10, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21935442, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25619998, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26666750}.
