Glyat Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable glycine N-acyltransferase activity and glycine N-benzoyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in benzoyl-CoA metabolic process; glycine metabolic process; and monocarboxylic acid metabolic process. Predicted to be active in mitochondrion. Orthologous to human GLYAT (glycine-N-acyltransferase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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