2.3.1.167 |
| Accepted name: |
10-deacetylbaccatin III 10-O-acetyltransferase |
| Reaction: |

| Systematic name: |
acetyl-CoA:taxan-10β-ol O-acetyltransferase |
| Comments: |
The enzyme will not acylate the hydroxy group at 1β, 7β or 13α of 10-deacetyl baccatin III, or at 5α of taxa-4(20),11-dien-5α-ol. May be identical to EC 2.3.1.163, 10-hydroxytaxane O-acetyltransferase. |
