EC | 3.5.1.114 | ||||||||||
Accepted name: | N-acyl-aromatic-L-amino acid amidohydrolase | ||||||||||
Reaction: | (1) an N-acyl-aromatic-L-amino acid + H2O = an aromatic-L-amino acid + a carboxylate (2) an N-acetyl-L-cysteine-S-conjugate + H2O = an L-cysteine-S-conjugate + acetate |
||||||||||
Glossary: | N-acetyl-L-cysteine-S-conjugate = mercapturic acid | ||||||||||
Other name(s): | aminoacylase 3; aminoacylase III; ACY3 (gene name) | ||||||||||
Systematic name: | N-acyl-aromatic-L-amino acid amidohydrolase (carboxylate-forming) | ||||||||||
Comments: | This enzyme is found in animals and is involved in the hydrolysis of N-acylated or N-acetylated amino acids (except L-aspartate). It preferentially deacetylates Nα-acetylated aromatic amino acids and mercapturic acids (S-conjugates of N-acetyl-L-cysteine) that are usually not deacetylated by EC 3.5.1.14, N-acyl-aliphatic-L-amino acid amidohydrolase. The enzyme is significantly activated by Co2+ and Ni2+ [3]. Some bacterial aminoacylases demonstrate substrate specificity for both EC 3.5.1.14 and EC 3.5.1.114. cf. EC 3.5.1.14, N-acyl-aliphatic-L-amino acid amidohydrolase and EC 3.5.1.15, aspartoacylase. | ||||||||||
