In [[enzymology]], a '''N6-acetyl-beta-lysine transaminase''' ({{EC number|2.6.1.65}}) is an [[enzyme]] that [[catalysis|catalyzes]] the [[chemical reaction]]

:6-acetamido-3-aminohexanoate + 2-oxoglutarate <math>\rightleftharpoons</math> 6-acetamido-3-oxohexanoate + L-glutamate

Thus, the two [[substrate (biochemistry)|substrates]] of this enzyme are [[6-acetamido-3-aminohexanoate]] and [[2-oxoglutarate]], whereas its two [[product (chemistry)|products]] are [[6-acetamido-3-oxohexanoate]] and [[L-glutamate]].

This enzyme belongs to the family of [[transferase]]s, specifically the [[transaminases]], which transfer nitrogenous groups. The systematic name of this enzyme class is '''6-acetamido-3-aminohexanoate:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase'''. This enzyme is also called '''epsilon-acetyl-beta-lysine aminotransferase'''. This enzyme participates in [[lysine degradation]]. It employs one [[cofactor (biochemistry)|cofactor]], [[pyridoxal phosphate]].
