DE   Aralkylamine N-acetyltransferase.
AN   AANAT.
AN   Arylalkylamine N-acetyltransferase.
AN   Melatonin rhythm enzyme.
AN   Serotonin acetylase.
AN   Serotonin acetyltransferase.
AN   Serotonin N-acetyltransferase.
CA   Acetyl-CoA + a 2-arylethylamine = CoA + an N-acetyl-2-arylethylamine.
CC   -!- Narrow specificity toward 2-arylethylamines, including serotonin
CC       (5-hydroxytryptamine), tryptamine, 5-methoxytryptamine and
CC       phenylethylamine.
CC   -!- This is the penultimate enzyme in the production of melatonin
CC       (5-methoxy-N-acetyltryptamine) and controls its synthesis (cf.
CC       EC 2.1.1.4).
CC   -!- Differs from EC 2.3.1.5.
