Name: argJ Updated annotation (from data): Glutamate N-acetyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.35) Rationale: Important for fitness in minimal media unless arginine is provided. Some homologs also catalyze the formation of N-acetylglutamate synthase, but the dedicated synthase (DVU1587) is also required, so DVU0823 probably catalyzes the acetyltransferase reaction (which is necessary to convert N(2)-acetylornithine to ornithine) only. Original annotation: arginine biosynthesis bifunctional protein ArgJ (TIGR) Type 1: Protein-coding gene Located on scaffold 1944, - strand, nucleotides 911,585 to 912,766 See nucleotide sequence around DVU0823 or for all of scaffold 1944
