N-acetylneuraminate 4-O-acetyltransferase

Index N-acetylneuraminate 4-O-acetyltransferase

In enzymology, a N-acetylneuraminate 4-O-acetyltransferase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are acetyl-CoA and N-acetylneuraminate, whereas its two products are CoA and N-acetyl-4-O-acetylneuraminate. [1]

Catalysis

Catalysis is the increase in the rate of a chemical reaction due to the participation of an additional substance called a catalysthttp://goldbook.iupac.org/C00876.html, which is not consumed in the catalyzed reaction and can continue to act repeatedly.

Transferase

A transferase is any one of a class of enzymes that enact the transfer of specific functional groups (e.g. a methyl or glycosyl group) from one molecule (called the donor) to another (called the acceptor).
