Protein
Acetyltransferase Pat
Organism
Mycobacterium smegmatis (strain ATCC 700084 / mc(2)155)
Function
Catalyzes specifically the acetylation of the epsilon-amino group of a highly conserved lysine residue in acetyl-CoA synthetase (ACS) and of the universal stress protein (USP) MSMEG_4207. Acetylation results in the inactivation of ACS activity and could be important for mycobacteria to adjust to environmental changes.
