N-α-acetyltransferase 10 (NAA10) in development: the role of NAA10
Developmental disorders: Focus on enzyme activity Further investigations are needed into the role of a key enzyme in biological development and its encoding gene. The enzyme N-α-acetyltransferase 10 (NAA10), encoded by the NAA10 gene, plays a role in multiple biological processes. While the function...

description | Developmental disorders: Focus on enzyme activity Further investigations are needed into the role of a key enzyme in biological development and its encoding gene. The enzyme N-α-acetyltransferase 10 (NAA10), encoded by the NAA10 gene, plays a role in multiple biological processes. While the function of NAA10 has been studied in cancer, less is known about the roles of the gene and the enzyme during development, according to a review by Goo Taeg Oh and co-workers at the Ewha Womans University in Seoul, South Korea. Mutations in NAA10 are found in patients with developmental delay, cardiac problems and skeletal abnormalities, while reduced enzyme activity is associated with developmental defects. Mouse studies suggest a role for NAA10 in neuronal development, bone formation and healthy sperm generation. The impact of variable NAA10 expression in different organs at different developmental stages needs clarification. |
