Entrez ID 10249
Gene name Glycine-N-acyltransferase
Gene symbol GLYAT
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
ACGNATCATGAT
Chromosome 11
Chromosome location 11q12.1
Summary The glycine-N-acyltransferase protein conjugates glycine with acyl-CoA substrates in the mitochondria. The protein is thought to be important in the detoxification of endogenous and xenobiotic acyl-CoA`s. Two transcript variants encoding different isoform

Protein name Glycine N-acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.13) (Acyl-CoA:glycine N-acyltransferase) (AAc) (Aralkyl acyl-CoA N-acyltransferase) (Aralkyl acyl-CoA:amino acid N-acyltransferase) (Benzoyl-coenzyme A:glycine N-acyltransferase) (Glycine N-benzoyltransferase) (EC 2.3.1
Protein function Mitochondrial acyltransferase which transfers an acyl group to the N-terminus of glycine and glutamine, although much less efficiently. Can conjugate numerous substrates to form a variety of N-acylglycines, with a preference for benzoyl-CoA over
