Summary: Enables lysine N-acetyltransferase activity, acting on acetyl phosphate as donor. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including double-strand break repair; hematopoietic progenitor cell differentiation; and protein localization to chromatin. Located in chromocenter and chromosome. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; gonad; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Roberts syndrome and lung adenocarcinoma. Orthologous to human ESCO2 (establishment of sister chromatid cohesion N-acetyltransferase 2).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
