DTDP-4-amino-4,6-dideoxy-D-galactose acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.210, TDP-fucosamine acetyltransferase, WECD, RFFC) is an enzyme with systematic name acetyl-CoA:dTDP-4-amino-4,6-dideoxy-alpha-D-galactose N-acetyltransferase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

acetyl-CoA + dTDP-4-amino-4,6-dideoxy-alpha-D-galactose \rightleftharpoons CoA + dTDP-4-acetamido-4,6-dideoxy-alpha-D-galactose

TDP-4-acetamido-4,6-dideoxy-D-galactose takes part in the biosynthesis of enterobacterial common antigen.
