Glyceronephosphate O-acyltransferase is an enzyme associated with rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata type 2.[1]
The gene encoding it, GNPAT, is located on chromosome 1 on the plus strand. The gene C1orf131 is located directly upstream of it, and the closest downstream gene is EXOC8.[2]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
