Literature on GLYATL2
GLYATL2 [ENSP00000287275]
Glycine N-acyltransferase-like protein 2; Mitochondrial acyltransferase which transfers the acyl group to the N-terminus of glycine. Conjugates numerous substrates, such as arachidonoyl-CoA and saturated medium and long-chain acyl-CoAs ranging from chain-length C8:0-CoA to C18:0-CoA, to form a variety of N- acylglycines. Shows a preference for monounsaturated fatty acid oleoyl- CoA (C18:1-CoA) as an acyl donor. Does not exhibit any activity toward C22:6-CoA and chenodeoxycholoyl-CoA, nor toward serine or alanine.
