Gene Summary: This gene, isolated using the differential display method to detect tissue-specific genes, is specifically expressed in kidney and liver. The encoded protein shows amino acid sequence similarity to N-acetyltransferases. A similar protein in Xenopus affects cell adhesion and gastrulation movements, and may be localized in the secretory pathway. A highly similar paralog is found in a cluster with this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 2

Location in Chromosome : 2p13.1

Description of this Gene: N-acetyltransferase 8 (putative)

Type of Gene: protein-coding
