Acetylglutamate kinase

This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those transferring phosphorus-containing groups (phosphotransferases) with a carboxy group as acceptor. This enzyme participates in urea cycle and metabolism of amino groups.

Nomenclature

The systematic name of this enzyme class is ATP:N-acetyl-L-glutamate 5-phosphotransferase. Other names in common use include:

N-acetylglutamate 5-phosphotransferase,
acetylglutamate phosphokinase,
N-acetylglutamate phosphokinase,
N-acetylglutamate kinase, and
N-acetylglutamic 5-phosphotransferase.

Structural studies

As of late 2007, 9 structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes 1GS5, 1GSJ, 1OH9, 1OHA, 1OHB, 2AP9, 2BTY, 2BUF, and 2RD5.
