NIT2

Gene Information
  • Official Symbol: NIT2
  • Official Name: nitrilase family member 2
  • Aliases and Previous Symbols: N/A
  • Entrez ID: 56954
  • UniProt: Q9NQR4
  • Interactions: BioGRID
  • PubMed articles: Open PubMed
  • OMIM: Open OMIM
Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: N/A
  • UniProt Summary: Has a omega-amidase activity. The role of omega-amidase is to remove potentially toxic intermediates by converting alpha- ketoglutaramate and alpha-ketosuccinamate to biologically useful alpha-ketoglutarate and oxaloacetate, respectively. Overexpression decreases the colony-forming capacity of cultured cells by arresting cells in the G2 phase of the cell cycle. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17488281, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19595734}.
