General annotation (Comments)

Function

N-acylates some free L-amino acids and their derivatives using a CoA thioester as cofactor. Using acetyl-CoA as a cofactor, substrate specificity is methionine sulfone > methionine sulfoximine > methionine sulfoxide > methionine. Asparagine, lysine, glutamine, aspartate and glutamate are very poor substrates. Using methionine as a substrate, cofactor preference is propionyl-CoA > acetyl-CoA >> butyryl-CoA. Ref.4

Catalytic activity

Acetyl-CoA + L-methionine = CoA + N-acetyl-L-methionine.

Biotechnological use

Expression leads to increased levels of N-acylated L-amino acids which could be used in a number of applications. Ref.4

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the acetyltransferase family. PAT/BAR subfamily.

Contains 1 N-acetyltransferase domain.
