About BAAT

Cytogenetic location: 9q31.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 9:101,360,417-101,385,006 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 1 gene allele, 372 orthologues, 4 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Restricted expression toward liver (RPKM 152.3).

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a liver Enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of C24 bile acids from the acyl-CoA thioester to either glycine or taurine, the second step in the formation of bile acid-amino acid conjugates. The bile acid conjugates then act as a detergent in the gastrointestinal tract, which enhances lipid and fat-soluble vitamin absorption. Defects in this gene are a cause of familial hypercholanemia (FHCA). Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
