EC 3.5.1.48     
Accepted name: acetylspermidine deacetylase
Reaction: N8-acetylspermidine + H2O = acetate + spermidine
Glossary: spermidine = N-(3-aminopropyl)butane-1,4-diamine
spermine = N,N′-bis(3-aminopropyl)butane-1,4-diamine
Other name(s): N8-monoacetylspermidine deacetylase; N8-acetylspermidine deacetylase; N-acetylspermidine deacetylase; N1-acetylspermidine amidohydrolase (incorrect); 8-N-acetylspermidine amidohydrolase
Systematic name: N8-acetylspermidine amidohydrolase
Comments: It was initially thought that N1-acetylspermidine was the substrate for this deacetylase reaction [1] but this has since been disproved by Marchant et al. [3].
