ATAT1( Human )
alpha tubulin acetyltransferase 1
Alias
C6orf134|MEC17|Nbla00487|TAT|alpha-TAT|alpha-TAT1
This gene encodes a protein that localizes to clathrin-coated pits, where it acetylates alpha tubulin on lysine 40. This process may be important in microtubule growth, for instance during chemotaxis and the formation of cilium. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
