Full name: glutamine fructose-6-phosphate transaminase 1

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: VALIDATED

Also known as: 2810423A18Rik; GFA; GFAT; GFAT1; GFAT1m; Gfpt

Summary: Predicted to enable several functions, including amino acid binding activity; glutamine-fructose-6-phosphate transaminase (isomerizing) activity; and identical protein binding activity. Involved in circadian regulation of gene expression. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Used to study congenital myasthenic syndrome 12. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital myasthenic syndrome 12 and obesity. Orthologous to human GFPT1 (glutamine--fructose-6-phosphate transaminase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
