Gene: KYAT3

Alternate names for this Gene: CCBL2|KAT3|KATIII

Gene Summary: This gene encodes an aminotransferase that transaminates kynurenine to form kynurenic acid, which is a metabolite of tryptophan. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different proteins have been described for this gene. This gene shares 5' exon structure with the RNA binding motif protein, X-linked-like 1 locus on chromosome 1, but the coding sequences are non-overlapping.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 1

Location in Chromosome : 1p22.2

Description of this Gene: kynurenine aminotransferase 3

Type of Gene: protein-coding
