Description

GLYATL1 (Glycine-N-Acyltransferase Like 1) is a protein-coding gene that encodes an acyltransferase enzyme involved in the conjugation of glycine with various acyl-CoA substrates. This gene is part of the glycine N-acyltransferase family and is primarily expressed in liver and kidney, playing a role in detoxification and metabolism of endogenous and exogenous carboxylic acids.

Protein Summary

The GLYATL1 protein (UniProt Q969I3) is a 296-amino acid acyltransferase localized in the cytoplasm. It catalyzes the transfer of an acyl group from acyl-CoA to glycine, producing N-acylglycine and CoA. This reaction is important for the detoxification of xenobiotics and the metabolism of endogenous acyl-CoA esters. The enzyme shows highest expression in liver and kidney, consistent with its role in metabolic clearance.
