ACY1

aminoacylase 1

Aminoacylase 1 (ACY1), also written aminoacylase-1, is a cytosolic zinc-dependent enzyme involved in the hydrolysis of acylated amino acids. This ABMIUM target record connects ACY1 biology, verified identifiers and catalogue-backed research products.

About ACY1

Target information is kept separate from product-level validation so you can review the biology and the reagent evidence independently.

Biology

Biological function

ACY1 hydrolyzes N-acetylated and N-formylated amino acids to release free amino acids and carboxylates. Reviewed UniProt annotation also supports a role with APEH in sequential degradation of N-acylated peptides and confirms zinc-dependent aminoacylase activity.

Experimental context

Research context

ACY1 is studied in amino-acid metabolism, N-acylated amino-acid turnover and metabolic-enzyme research. Use the related ABMIUM catalogue products to evaluate ACY1 reagents, then confirm species, sample type, application and product-level validation for the planned experiment.
