GLYAT also known as glycine-N-acyltransferase or GAT is an enzyme involved in glycine conjugation. This enzyme has a molecular mass of approximately 33 kDa. GLYAT is mainly expressed in the liver and is found in mitochondria. Its mechanical role involves transferring acyl groups from acyl-CoA to glycine forming acyl-glycine conjugates. These conjugates facilitate the excretion of harmful metabolites from the body contributing to detoxification processes.
Biological function summary

GLYAT functions as part of a detoxification pathway. By conjugating glycine to various acyl-CoA substrates it assists in the removal of xenobiotics and other acyl-containing toxins. This action is particularly important for the prevention of acidosis and maintenance of metabolic homeostasis. The enzyme does not typically form part of a larger complex but works alongside other enzymes involved in amino acid metabolism.

Pathways

GLYAT plays an essential role in the glycine conjugation pathway. This pathway is important for detoxifying benzoic acid and other aromatic carboxylic acids. Related proteins include various CoA synthetases which provide the acyl-CoA substrates needed for GLYAT activity. The glycine conjugation pathway intersects with central metabolic networks like amino acid metabolism linking GLYAT functionally to both catabolic and anabolic processes.

Impaired GLYAT function may relate to metabolic issues like hyperglycinemia and certain cases of congenital metabolic disorders of detoxification. Its activity is also relevant in conditions characterized by an accumulation of organic acids. Dysfunctional GLYAT can lead to toxic metabolite build-up emphasizing its importance in maintaining metabolic health. Disorders connected to GLYAT often involve other enzymes in detoxification pathways such as those enzymes implicated in amino acid degradation.

General info

Function

Mitochondrial acyltransferase which transfers an acyl group to the N-terminus of glycine and glutamine, although much less efficiently. Can conjugate numerous substrates to form a variety of N-acylglycines, with a preference for benzoyl-CoA over phenylacetyl-CoA as acyl donors. Thereby detoxify xenobiotics, such as benzoic acid or salicylic acid, and endogenous organic acids, such as isovaleric acid.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the glycine N-acyltransferase family.
