GNAT acetyltransferase, Mec-17 Mec-17 is the protein product of one of the 18 genes required for the development and function of the touch receptor neuron for gentle touch. Mec-17 is specifically required for maintaining the differentiation of the touch receptor. The family shares all the residue-motifs characteristic of Gcn5-related acetyl-transferases, though the exact unction is still unknown.
