Gene: NAA15

Alternate names for this Gene: Ga19|MRD50|NARG1|NAT1P|NATH|TBDN|TBDN100

Gene Summary: N-alpha-acetylation is among the most common post-translational protein modifications in eukaryotic cells. This process involves the transfer of an acetyl group from acetyl-coenzyme A to the alpha-amino group on a nascent polypeptide and is essential for normal cell function. This gene encodes the auxillary subunit of the N-terminal acetyltransferase A (NatA) complex.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 4

Location in Chromosome : 4q31.1

Description of this Gene: N-alpha-acetyltransferase 15, NatA auxiliary subunit

Type of Gene: protein-coding
