Part:BBa_J45014

alcohol acetyltransferase I; converts isoamyl alcohol to isoamyl acetate (banana odor)

BBa_J45014 encodes alcohol acetyltransferase I derived from ATF1 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. ATF1 catalyzes the conversion of isoamyl alcohol to isoamyl acetate. Isoamyl acetate has a banana smell.

Usage and Biology

[Note that this is not aspartate amino transferase (also called "AATase"), and that "ATF1" also refers to "Activating Transcription Factor 1" in humans (an entirely different protein that is homologous to "Atf1" in mouse).]
