EC 2.1.3.9 Details

show Brenda entry

EC number

2.1.3.9

Accepted name

N-acetylornithine carbamoyltransferase

Reaction

carbamoyl phosphate + N²-acetyl-L-ornithine = phosphate + N-acetyl-L-citrulline

Other name(s)

acetylornithine transcarbamylase, N-acetylornithine transcarbamylase, AOTC, carbamoyl-phosphate:2-N-acetyl-L-ornithine carbamoyltransferase, AOTCase

Systematic name

carbamoyl-phosphate:N²-acetyl-L-ornithine carbamoyltransferase

CAS registry number

890853-54-0

Comment

Differs from EC 2.1.3.3, ornithine carbamoyltransferase. This enzyme replaces EC 2.1.3.3 in the canonic arginine biosynthetic pathway of several Eubacteria and has no catalytic activity with L-ornithine as substrate.
