Imidazole N-acetyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.2) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The two substrates of this enzyme are imidazole and acetyl-CoA. Its products are N-acetylimidazole and coenzyme A. It was characterised from Clostridium kluyveri.[1]
This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those acyltransferases transferring groups other than aminoacyl groups. The systematic name of this enzyme class is acetyl-CoA:imidazole N-acetyltransferase. Other names in common use include imidazole acetylase, and imidazole acetyltransferase.[2]
