Pathway Glutathione metabolism (hsa00480 )
Metabolic pathways (hsa01100 )
Function This enzyme acetylates the free alpha-amino group of cysteine S-conjugates to form mercapturic acids. This is the final step in a major route for detoxification of a wide variety of reactive electrophiles which starts with their incorporation into glutathione S-conjugates. The glutathione S-conjugates are then further processed into cysteine S-conjugates and finally mercapturic acids which are water soluble and can be readily excreted in urine or bile. Alternatively, it may have a lysine N-acetyltransferase activity catalyzing peptidyl-lysine N6-acetylation of various proteins.
