Summary
Enables acetyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in circadian rhythm and response to light stimulus. Predicted to act upstream of or within melatonin biosynthetic process and rhythmic process. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in brain; epiphysis; ovary; and retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in advanced sleep phase syndrome. Orthologous to human AANAT (aralkylamine N-acetyltransferase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jun 2025]

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.
