Structured_description | Concise_description | mec-17 encodes an alpha-tubulin acetyltransferase; MEC-17 activity is required for maintaining the differentiated state of the touch receptor neurons, and hence the animal's touch sensitivity, during later stages of larval development; MEC-17 and W06B11.1 function redundantly for acetylation of K40 on MEC-12 alpha-tubulin; mec-17 is expressed solely in the touch receptor cells from late embryogenesis through adulthood, and this expression is dependent upon the MEC-3 LIM homeodomain transcription factor; in turn, as MEC-17 is necessary for maintaining differentiated touch receptors, its activity is required for continued expression of MEC-3 and the MEC-7 beta-tubulin. | Paper_evidence | WBPaper00001125 | |||||

Automated_description | Enables tubulin N-acetyltransferase activity. Involved in mechanoreceptor differentiation and thigmotaxis. Predicted to be located in microtubule. Expressed in touch receptor neurons. Used to study neurodegenerative disease. Is an ortholog of human ATAT1 (alpha tubulin acetyltransferase 1). | Paper_evidence | WBPaper00065943 | ||||||

Disease_relevance | Axonal degeneration arises as a consequence of neuronal injury and is a characteristic of a number of neurodegenerative diseases; in C. elegans the loss of the mec-17 alpha-tubulin acetyltransferase causes adult-onset and progressive axonal degeneration via microtubule instability, reduced mitochondrial number and disrupted axonal transport. | Homo sapiens | Paper_evidence | WBPaper00044649 | |||||
