SCUBA

HYPK — Huntingtin interacting protein K

HYPK belongs to a gene co-expression module in 2 of 28 SCUBA cell types. Each module groups genes that rise and fall together in that cell type; the genes it shares a module with are its closest co-expression partners there.

Function

Component of several N-terminal acetyltransferase complexes. Inhibits the N- terminal acetylation activity of the N-terminal acetyltransferase NAA10-NAA15 complex (also called the NatA complex). Has chaperone-like activity preventing polyglutamine (polyQ) aggregation of HTT in neuronal cells probably while associated with the NatA complex. May play a role in the NatA complex-mediated N-terminal acetylation of PCNP.
