Anthranilate N-malonyltransferase explained

anthranilate N-malonyltransferase
Ec Number:2.3.1.113
Cas Number:94489-98-2
Go Code:0047673

In enzymology, an anthranilate N-malonyltransferase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

malonyl-CoA + anthranilate

\rightleftharpoons

CoA + N-malonylanthranilate

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are malonyl-CoA and anthranilate, whereas its two products are CoA and N-malonylanthranilate.

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 malonyl-CoA:anthranilate N-malonyltransferase.
