Synonyms Comment Organism
More in early days of investigation of sialate O-acetyltransferase it was not possible to discriminate clearly between 7- or 9-O-acetylated sialic acids enzymatically formed on a micro scale in order to denominate the enzyme correctly, there also exists the possibility of the existence of more than one O-acetyltransferases incorporating acetyl-groups into different positions of the sialic acid side chain, in contrast a hypothesis is presented for the requirement of only one transferase specific for the 7-OH group, after insertion of the O-acetyl group at O-7 the ester residue may migrate to O-9 afterwards a second O-acetyl group can be transferred by the same enzyme to O-7, which may migrate to O-8 and open the way for linking a third acetyl group to O-7 Bos taurus
