Accepted name: |
cysteine-S-conjugate N-acetyltransferase |
Reaction: |
acetyl-CoA + an L-cysteine-S-conjugate = CoA + an N-acetyl-L-cysteine-S-conjugate |
Glossary: |
N-acetyl-L-cysteine-S-conjugate = mercapturic acid |
Systematic name: |
acetyl-CoA:S-substituted L-cysteine N-acetyltransferase |
Comments: |
S-Benzyl-L-cysteine and, in decreasing order of activity, S-butyl-L-cysteine, S-propyl-L-cysteine, O-benzyl-L-serine and S-ethyl-L-cysteine, can act as acceptors. |
