Chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) is the enzyme responsible for the high level resistance to chloramphenicol exhibited by many prokaryotes. The enzyme operates by way of 0-acetylation of the primary (C-3) hydroxyl of chloramphenicol using acetyl coenzyme A as the acyl donor. The primary aim of...
