Glycine N-phenylacetyltransferase (arylacetyl-CoA N-acyltransferase, arylacetyltransferase, GAT (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name phenylacetyl-CoA:glycine N-phenylacetyltransferase.[1] [2] [3] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
CoA + phenylacetylglycine
This enzyme was purified from bovine liver mitochondria.
