NMT2 - N-myristoyltransferase 2 Gene
Species: Homo sapiens
About NMT2
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 210 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in fat (RPKM 9.3), testis (RPKM 5.5) and 24 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes one of two N-myristoyltransferase proteins. N-terminal myristoylation is a lipid modification that is involved in regulating the function and localization of signaling proteins. The encoded protein catalyzes the addition of a myristoyl group to the N-terminal glycine residue of many signaling proteins, including the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) proteins, Gag and Nef. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2015]
