Naa15 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables N-acetyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including N-terminal protein amino acid acetylation; positive regulation of DNA-templated transcription; and protein stabilization. Located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; cornea endothelium; genitourinary system; gut; and hemolymphoid system gland. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant intellectual developmental disorder 50. Orthologous to human NAA15 (N-alpha-acetyltransferase 15, NatA auxiliary subunit).

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 Naa15 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
