N-Acyltransferase superfamily: Various enyzmes that characteristicly catalyze the transfer of an acyl group to a substrate
NAT (N-Acyltransferase) is a large superfamily of enzymes that mostly catalyze the transfer of an acyl group to a substrate and are implicated in a variety of functions, from bacterial antibiotic resistance to circadian rhythms in mammals. Members include GCN5-related N-Acetyltransferases (GNAT) such as Aminoglycoside N-acetyltransferases, Histone N-acetyltransferase (HAT) enzymes, and Serotonin N-acetyltransferase which catalyze the transfer of an acetyl group to a substrate. The mechanism is an ordered Bi-Bi ternary complex kinetic mechanism for most GNATs: the reaction begins with Acetyl Coenzyme A (AcCoA) binding, followed by binding of substrate, then direct transfer of the acetyl group from AcCoA to the substrate, followed by product and then CoA release. Other family members include Arginine/ornithine N-succinyltransferase, Myristoyl-CoA: protein N-myristoyltransferase, and Acyl-homoserinelactone synthase which have a similar catalytic mechanism but differ in types of acyl groups transferred. Leucyl/ph enylalanyl-tRNA-protein transferase and FemXAB nonribosomal peptidyltransferases which catalyze similar peptidyltransferase reactions are also included.
