Protein
Probable N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosaminyl L-malate deacetylase 2
Organism
Bacillus cereus (strain ATCC 14579 / DSM 31 / JCM 2152 / NBRC 15305 / NCIMB 9373 / NRRL B-3711)
Function
Involved in bacillithiol (BSH) biosynthesis. Catalyzes the second step of the pathway, the deacetylation of N-acetylglucosaminylmalate (GlcNAc-Mal) to glucosamine malate (GlcN-Mal). Has weak activity compared with bshB1.
Similarity
Belongs to the PIGL family.
