Function Acetylates the free alpha-amino group of cysteine S- conjugates to form mercapturic acids. This is the final step in a major route for detoxification of a wide variety of reactive electrophiles which starts with their incorporation into glutathione S-conjugates. The glutathione S-conjugates are then further processed into cysteine S-conjugates and finally mercapturic acids which are water soluble and can be readily excreted in urine or bile. Alternatively, may have a lysine N- acetyltransferase activity catalyzing peptidyl-lysine N6- acetylation of various proteins. Thereby, may regulate apoptosis through the acetylation and the regulation of the expression of PROM1. May also regulate amyloid beta-peptide secretion through acetylation of BACE1 and the regulation of its expression in neurons (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
