Background：NAT-10 （N-acetyltransferase 10） is a nuclear protein that belongs to the UPF0202 family. It has a single N-acetyltransferase domain that likely functions as a histone acetyltransferase. NAT10 functions primarily to regulate the activity of telomerase. It is upregulated in response to DNA damage and is likely to take part in genotoxic resistance and DNA repair. NAT-10 has a high binding potential for the promoter region of TERT which stimulates the production of telomerase. These varieties of function imply that human telomerase complexes have multiple functions rather than specific duties.
