Description

Phosphate Acetyltransferase is an enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of an acetyl group from acetyl-CoA to phosphate, producing acetyl phosphate. This enzyme plays a significant role in various metabolic pathways, particularly in energy metabolism and biosynthesis.

Interpreter Notes

Interpreters may encounter variations such as 'acetiltransferasa de fosfato' in less formal contexts, but it is important to use 'Fosfato Acetiltransferasa' in clinical settings. Be cautious of potential confusion with similar-sounding terms in Spanish that may refer to different enzymes.

Example Sentences
