Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Lineage: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo
Also known as: GST; GST13; hGSTK1; GSTK1-1; GST13-13; GST 13-13
Summary: This gene encodes a member of the kappa class of the glutathione transferase superfamily of enzymes that function in cellular detoxification. The encoded protein is localized to the peroxisome and catalyzes the conjugation of glutathione to a wide range of hydrophobic substates facilitating the removal of these compounds from cells. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2009]
Expression: Ubiquitous expression in duodenum (RPKM 118.1), small intestine (RPKM 106.3) and 25 other tissues See more

DsbA-L plays a critical protective role in renal ectopic fat deposition and lipid-related kidney injury in mice with diabetic nephropathy (DN) and patients with DN. The mechanisms might involve the inhibition of cholesterol synthesis through the inactivation of HMGCR and the promotion of lipolysis through the activation of ATGL and the subsequent reduction of lipid droplets accumulation in the kidney.

The population prediction model of BMI indicated that the DsbA-L T/T genotype was significantly associated with a high BMI. The BMI-based NAFLD prediction model showed that the DsbA-L T/T genotype did not have any direct impact on the risk of NAFLD, whereas the structural equation model suggested that this genotype might be indirectly or partially associated with NAFLD risk through a high BMI and low adiponectin.

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.
