Application

Phosphotransacetylase, from Bacillus stearothermophilus, is used to convert CoA to acetyl CoA. Phosphotransacetylase (pta) is used to study transport systems for acetate. It is used to study metabolic pathways in various bacterium.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphotransacetylase converts CoA to acetyl CoA.

Other Notes

One unit will convert 1.0 μmole of CoA to acetyl CoA per min at pH 7.5 at 30 °C using acetyl phosphate as substrate.

Cyclophilins belong to the peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase family of enzymes (EC 5.2.1.8), which accelerate protein folding by catalysing the cis/trans isomerisation of proline imidic peptide bonds. In the present study, by a combination of bioinformatics methods, we identify phosphate acetyltransferase
