General annotation (Comments)

Function

Acetyltransferase required for the establishment of sister chromatid cohesion. Couples the processes of cohesion and DNA replication to ensure that only sister chromatids become paired together. In contrast to the structural cohesins, the deposition and establishment factors are required only during the S phase. Acetylates the cohesin component SMC3. Ref.1 Ref.7 Ref.8

Subcellular location

Nucleus. Chromosome Ref.7.

Tissue specificity

Widely expressed in fetal tissues. In adult, it is expressed in thymus, placenta and small intestine. Ref.1

Involvement in disease

Roberts syndrome (RBS) [MIM:268300]: Rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by pre- and postnatal growth retardation, microcephaly, bilateral cleft lip and palate, and mesomelic symmetric limb reduction. Severely affected infants may be stillborn or die shortly after birth. RBS chromosomes have a lack of cohesion involving the heterochromatic C-banding regions around centromeres and the distal portion of the long arm of the Y chromosome (known as premature centromere separation, heterochromatin repulsion or puffing, or RS effect).
Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Ref.1

SC phocomelia syndrome (SCPS) [MIM:269000]: Has a milder phenotype than RBS, with a lesser degree of symmetric limb reduction and additionally includes flexion contractures of various joints, midfacial hemangioma, hypoplastic cartilage of ears and nose, scant silvery-blond hair, and cloudy corneae. Although microcephaly is present, mental retardation may be mild and survival into adulthood is common.
Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Ref.3

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the acetyltransferase family. GCN5 subfamily.
