Description
This enzyme is considered the key enzyme and rate limiting step in the mycothiol biosynthesis pathway. In addition to acetylase activity, the enzyme possesses weak activity of EC 3.5.1.115, mycothiol S-conjugate amidase, and shares sequence similarity with that enzyme. The enzyme requires a divalent transition metal ion for activity, believed to be Zn2+.
