Entry

EC 2.3.1.327                Enzyme                                 

Name

long-chain acyl-[acp]:L-phenylalanine N-acyltransferase;
N-acyl amino acid synthase A;
nasA (gene name)

Class

Transferases;
Acyltransferases;
Transferring groups other than aminoacyl groups

Sysname

long-chain acyl-[acp]:L-phenylalanine N-acyltransferase

Reaction(IUBMB)

11-methyldodecanoyl-[acp] + L-phenylalanine = [acp] + N-(11-methyldodecanoyl)-L-phenylalanine [RN:R13432]

Reaction(KEGG)
Substrate

11-methyldodecanoyl-[acp] [CPD:C22992];
L-phenylalanine [CPD:C00079]

Product

acp [CPD:C00229];
N-(11-methyldodecanoyl)-L-phenylalanine [CPD:C22993]

Comment

The enzyme, characterized from an environmental DNA sample and expressed in Paraburkholderia graminis, catalyses the transfer of linear and branched long-chain acyl-[acp] molecules to L-phenylalanine, forming N-acyl-L-phenylalanine molecules.
