Sat1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable diamine N-acetyltransferase activity; identical protein binding activity; and spermidine binding activity. Acts upstream of or within regulation of cell population proliferation. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in anxiety disorder and mood disorder. Orthologous to human SAT1 (spermidine/spermine N1-acetyltransferase 1).

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Sat1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
