Enzyme Information
2.3.1.189 |
Mycothiol synthase.
based on mapping to UniProt P9WJM7
Desacetylmycothiol + acetyl-CoA = CoA + mycothiol.
-!- This enzyme catalyzes the last step in the biosynthesis of mycothiol, the major thiol in most actinomycetes, including Mycobacterium. -!- The enzyme is a member of a large family of GCN5-related N-acetyltransferases (GNATs). -!- The enzyme has been purified from Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv. -!- Acetyl-CoA is the preferred CoA thioester but propionyl-CoA is also a substrate.
