01

Overview

Lysine Acetyltransferase 6A (KAT6A) is an enzyme that functions as a histone acetyltransferase, playing a key role in chromatin remodeling and gene transcription. It is involved in various developmental processes and can act as both an oncogene and tumor suppressor depending on context. Mutations in KAT6A cause Arboleda-Tham syndrome, and aberrant expression is linked to various cancers and cognitive impairment.
