Gene symbol BAAT
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
BACATBACD1BATFHCA3HCHO
Chromosome 9
Chromosome location 9q31.1
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 a

Protein name Bile acid-CoA:amino acid N-acyltransferase (BACAT) (BAT) (EC 2.3.1.65) (Bile acid-CoA thioesterase) (Choloyl-CoA hydrolase) (EC 3.1.2.27) (Glycine N-choloyltransferase) (Long-chain fatty-acyl-CoA hydrolase) (EC 3.1.2.2)
Protein function Catalyzes the amidation of bile acids (BAs) with the amino acids taurine and glycine (PubMed:12239217, PubMed:12810727, PubMed:2037576, PubMed:8034703). More than 95% of the BAs are N-acyl amidates with glycine and taurine (PubMed:8034703). Amid
