About KAT2A

Cytogenetic location: 17q21.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 17:42,113,111-42,121,367 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 209 orthologues and 11 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in ovary (RPKM 41.6), adrenal (RPKM 30.6) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

KAT2A, or GCN5, is a Histone Acetyltransferase (HAT) that functions primarily as a transcriptional activator. It also functions as a repressor of NF-kappa-B (see MIM 164011) by promoting ubiquitination of the NF-kappa-B subunit RELA (MIM 164014) in a HAT-independent manner (Mao et al., 2009 [PubMed 19339690]).[supplied by OMIM, Sep 2009]
