Summary
Predicted to enable acetyl-CoA:L-glutamate N-acetyltransferase activity and arginine binding activity. Predicted to be involved in arginine biosynthetic process and glutamate metabolic process. Predicted to be located in mitochondrion. Predicted to be active 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).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
