LITERATURE
evolution
the enzyme is a member of the galactoside acetyltransferase superfamily from methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus
physiological function
the enzyme SACOL2570 is a putative galactoside O-acetyltransferase (GAT) protein and may act as a detoxifying enzyme, acetylating nonmetabolizable carbohydrates to prevent their reentry into the cell. It is potentially involved in the cellular processes of toxin production and antibiotic resistance
