gfat-1 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable glutamine-fructose-6-phosphate transaminase (isomerizing) activity. Involved in IRE1-mediated unfolded protein response. Expressed in tail. Used to study Machado-Joseph disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital myasthenic syndrome 12; obesity; and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
