glycine N-acyltransferase-like protein 2 (acyl-CoA:glycine N-acyltransferase-like protein 2, GLYATL2)

Function

• mitochondrial acyltransferase which transfers the acyl group to the N-terminus of glycine
• can conjugate a multitude of substrates to form a variety of N-acylglycines (putative)

Acyl-CoA + glycine <--> CoA + N-acylglycine

Structure

belongs to the glycine N-acyltransferase family

Compartment

mitochondria (putative)
