  • YJL071W
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables L-glutamate N-acetyltransferase activity. Involved in ornithine biosynthetic process. Located in mitochondrial matrix. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in N-acetylglutamate synthase deficiency and amino acid metabolic disorder. Orthologous to human NAGS (N-acetylglutamate synthase).
SGD Description
Acetylglutamate synthase (glutamate N-acetyltransferase); mitochondrial enzyme that catalyzes the first step in the biosynthesis of the arginine precursor ornithine; forms a complex with Arg5,6p
