Summary
Enables chromatin binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including circulatory system development; face morphogenesis; and negative regulation of DNA-binding transcription factor activity. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; early embryo; genitourinary system; and liver. Used to study DiGeorge syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Arboleda-Tham syndrome and acute myeloid leukemia. Orthologous to human KAT6A (lysine acetyltransferase 6A).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
