2.3.1.312

Accepted name:

D-glutamate N-acetyltransferase

Reaction:

acetyl-CoA + D-glutamate = N-acetyl-D-glutamate + CoA

Other name(s):

dgcN (gene name)

Systematic name:

acetyl-CoA:D-glutamate N-acetyltransferase

Comments:

The enzyme, present in bacteria and archaea, participates in a pathway for the degradation of D-glutamate. The enzyme from the marine bacterium Pseudoalteromonas sp. CF6-2 can also acetylate D-glutamine, D-aspartate, and D-asparagine with lower activity.
