NOV 2019 This gene represents one of 9 duplicated nat8 genes identified by Xenbase during analysis Xenopus v9/10 genome annotation, all on Chromosome 1 in X. tropicalis and X. laevis, and is true ortholog of the human NAT8B gene.
Note that not all duplications are present in X. tropicalis, and X. laevis does not always have both .L and .S homeologs.
