| Accepted name: |
N-hydroxyarylamine O-acetyltransferase |
| Reaction: |
acetyl-CoA + an N-hydroxyarylamine = CoA + an N-acetoxyarylamine |
| Other name(s): |
arylhydroxamate N,O-acetyltransferase; arylamine N-acetyltransferase; N-hydroxy-2-aminofluorene-O-acetyltransferase |
| Systematic name: |
acetyl-CoA:N-hydroxyarylamine O-acetyltransferase |
| Comments: |
The enzyme from liver, but not that from bacteria, can also catalyse N-acetylation of arylamines and N,O-acetylation of arylhydroxamates. |
