Supplementary information

KAT2 also known as AadAT is an important lysine acetyltransferase enzyme that modifies proteins by adding acetyl groups to lysine residues. This process impacts several cellular functions. KAT2 typically features a molecular mass of approximately 55 kDa. You will usually find it expressed in a wide range of tissues including liver and brain. The enzyme's presence suggests an essential role in numerous physiological processes particularly within the nucleus where it modifies histones.
Biological function summary

KAT2/AadAT takes part in chromatin remodeling and gene expression regulation. This enzyme often functions as part of multiprotein complexes which include transcription factors and coactivators. The acetylation of histone proteins by KAT2 modifies chromatin structure resulting in enhanced access of transcription machinery to DNA. This activity is essential for processes like cell growth and differentiation playing a significant role in maintaining normal physiological conditions.

Pathways

KAT2/AadAT is integrated into the larger network of acetylation-mediated gene regulation. Two primary pathways it is involved with include the gene expression pathway and the chromatin modification pathway. In these pathways KAT2 interacts with proteins such as CBP/p300 which act as transcriptional coactivators. This interaction helps facilitate the acetylation process that is vital for gene activation and the subsequent biological responses to external stimuli.

Alterations in KAT2/AadAT activity link to specific conditions including cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. For instance abnormal KAT2 activity has been observed in certain cancers where dysregulated gene expression promotes tumor progression. Additionally altered acetylation patterns by KAT2 can contribute to neurodegenerative disorders where the modified interaction with proteins like HDAC1 disrupts normal neuronal function.

Target data

Transaminase with broad substrate specificity. Has transaminase activity towards aminoadipate, kynurenine, methionine and glutamate. Shows activity also towards tryptophan, aspartate and hydroxykynurenine. Accepts a variety of oxo-acids as amino-group acceptors, with a preference for 2-oxoglutarate, 2-oxocaproic acid, phenylpyruvate and alpha-oxo-gamma-methiol butyric acid. Can also use glyoxylate as amino-group acceptor (in vitro).
