About Kat2a

Primary_assembly 10: 85,632,216-85,640,166 reverse strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026983.1

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 209 orthologues, 11 paralogues and is associated with 4 phenotypes. Biased expression in Brain (RPKM 66.2), Adrenal (RPKM 57.9) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Enables chromatin binding activity and protein Phosphatase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including alpha-tubulin acetylation; intracellular distribution of mitochondria; and positive regulation of cardiac muscle cell differentiation. Located in chromatin and nucleus. Orthologous to human KAT2A (lysine acetyltransferase 2A). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
