Enzyme Information

2.3.1.178
Diaminobutyrate acetyltransferase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q7W980
Acetyl-CoA + L-2,4-diaminobutanoate = CoA + N(4)-acetyl-L-2,4- diaminobutanoate.
-!- Ornithine, lysine, aspartate, and alpha-, beta- and gamma- 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.
