Enzyme Commission Number
EC 2.3.1.178
Product Overview
High-quality enzyme products.
Well-established quality management system.
Reaction
acetyl-CoA + L-2,4-diaminobutanoate = CoA + (2S)-4-acetamido-2-aminobutanoate
Systematic Name
acetyl-CoA:L-2,4-diaminobutanoate N4-acetyltransferase
Function
Requires Na+ or K+ for maximal activity. Ornithine, lysine, aspartate, and α-, β- and γ-aminobutanoate cannot act as substrates. However, acetyl-CoA can be replaced by propanoyl-CoA, although the reaction proceeds more slowly. Forms part of the ectoine-biosynthesis pathway.
Other name
