Term Name: protein-lysine-acetyltransferase activity
Synonyms: peptide-lysine-acetyltransferase activity, peptide-lysine-N-acetylase activity, peptide-lysine-N-acetyltransferase activity, protein acetylase activity, protein-lysine-N-acetylase activity
Definition: Catalysis of the reaction: acetyl-CoA + lysine in peptide = CoA + N-acetyl-lysine-peptide. The acetyl group is transferred to the nitrogen atom at position 6 of the lysine residue in the protein.
