2.3.1.267

[ribosomal protein S5]-alanine N-acetyltransferase

acetyl-CoA + an N-terminal L-alanyl-[S5 protein of 30S ribosome] = CoA + an N-terminal N-acetyl-L-alanyl-[S5 protein of 30S ribosome]

rimJ (gene name)

acetyl-CoA:N-terminal L-alanyl-[S5 protein of 30S ribosome] N-acetyltransferase

The enzyme, characterized from bacteria, is specific for protein S5, a component of the 30S ribosomal subunit. It also plays a role in maturation of the 30S ribosomal subunit. cf. EC 2.3.1.266, [ribosomal protein S18]-alanine N-acetyltransferase.
