Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables histone acetyltransferase activity. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to leukemia inhibitory factor. Predicted to be located in chromatin. Predicted to be part of MOZ/MORF histone acetyltransferase complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; early conceptus; facial prominence; genitourinary system; and limb mesenchyme. Used to study Noonan syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Ohdo syndrome, SBBYS variant; bipolar disorder; breast cancer; and leiomyoma. Orthologous to human KAT6B (lysine acetyltransferase 6B). PHENOTYPE: Reduced expression of this gene results in developmental defects of the skeleton and brain, particularly the cerebral cortex.
