Function
Histone acetyltransferase that acetylates lysine residues in histone H3 and histone H4 (in vitro). Component of the MOZ/MORF complex which has a histone H3 acetyltransferase activity. May act as a transcriptional coactivator for RUNX1 and RUNX2. Acetylates p53/TP53 at 'Lys-120' and 'Lys-382' and controls its transcriptional activity via association with PML. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11742995, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11965546, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12771199, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16387653, ECO:0000269|PubMed:179...

HI Evidence:
  • PUBMED: 25728777
    Tham et al. (2015): A multi-center whole exome study found de novo, heterozygous truncating mutations in KAT6A six individuals from five families. The inactivating mutations were associated with a common phenotype of intellectual disability, hypotonia, cranio-facial and cardiac defects.
  • PUBMED: 27133397
    Millan et al.(2016): Whole exome studies of 1,028 trios revealed de novo heterozygous mutations in KAT6A in six unrelated patients. Five of these were truncating and one was a missense mutation. All six patients had severe neurodevelopmental delay. Phenotypes shared amongst some included hypotonia, speech impairment, microcephaly and dysmorphic features.
  • PUBMED: 25728775
    Arboleda et al. (2015): Clinical exome sequencing identified de novo, heterozygous, nonsense mutations in KAT6A in four unrelated patients. All four had primary microcephaly, global delay with profound speech delay, and craniofacial abnormalities.
HI Evidence Comments:
KAT6A plays important roles in transcriptional regulation and developmental gene expression. Although originally identified as part of a fusion with TIF2 in AML, recent exome trio studies have found that de novo, heterozygous inactivating mutations in KAT6A are responsible for Mental retardation, autosomal dominant 32.
