About This Section
| EntrezGene summary for AANAT: Arylalkylamine N-acetyltransferase belongs to the superfamily of acetyltransferases. It is the penultimate enzyme in melatonin synthesis and controls the night/day rhythm in melatonin production in the vertebrate pineal gland. Melatonin is essential for seasonal reproduction, modulates the function of the circadian clock in the suprachiasmatic nucleus, and influences activity and sleep. This enzyme is rapidly inactivated when animals are exposed to light at night. This protein is 80% identical to sheep and rat AA-NAT. Arylalkylamine N-acetyltransferase may contribute a multifactorial genetic diseases such as altered behavior in sleep/wake cycle. [provided by RefSeq] UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: SNAT_HUMAN, Q16613Function: Catalyzes the N-acetylation of serotonin into N-acetylserotonin. Controls the night/day rhythm of melatonin production in the pineal gland. Has a relative affinity for hydroxylated versus non-hydroxylated arylalkylamines |

| UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: SNAT_HUMAN, Q16613 (See
protein sequence)Recommended Name: Serotonin N-acetyltransferase Size: 207 amino acids; 23344 Da
Subunit: Monomer (By similarity). Interacts with YWHAZ; the interaction requires phosphorylation on Thr-31, and modulates the enzymatic activity of AANAT through preventing dephosphorylation and/or proteolysis and stabilizing substrate binding. Subsequently, a second molecule of AANAT can bind, via the phosphorylated Ser-205 site, the other YWHAZ monomer with similar effect (By similarity)
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm
Secondary accessions: A0AVF2 Q562F4Post-translational modifications:
Phosphorylated; cAMP-dependent phosphorylation on both N-terminal and C-terminal sites regulates AANAT activity through allowing interaction with 14-3-3 proteins and protecting the enzyme against proteasomal degradation (By similarity)1
