Structural highlights
Function
ACKA_THEMA Catalyzes the formation of acetyl phosphate from acetate and ATP. Can also catalyze the reverse reaction. Phosphorylates propionate (54%) in addition to acetate (100%). Uses GTP (100%), ITP (163%), UTP (56%), and CTP (21%) as phosphoryl donors in addition to ATP (100%).[1]
