Description

GLYATL3 (Glycine-N-Acyltransferase Like 3) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 6p12.1. It encodes a member of the glycine-N-acyltransferase family, which catalyzes the conjugation of glycine with various acyl-CoA substrates. The enzyme is involved in the detoxification of endogenous and exogenous acyl compounds. Expression data from GTEx and The Human Protein Atlas indicate highest expression in liver and kidney tissues.

Protein Summary

The GLYATL3 protein (UniProt Q5VU57) is a 319-amino acid acyltransferase localized to 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 endogenous metabolites. The protein is highly expressed in liver and kidney, consistent with its role in metabolic clearance.
