Predicted to enable cysteine-S-conjugate N-acetyltransferase activity and lysine N-acetyltransferase activity, acting on acetyl phosphate as donor. Involved in gastrulation with mouth forming second. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus; endoplasmic reticulum membrane; and endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment membrane. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Orthologous to several human genes including NAT8 (N-acetyltransferase 8 (putative)). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
