Explore the functional association between Primordial amino acid kinases and N-acetyltransferases through ancestral carbamate kinases and N-acetyltransferase folds fusion. Studying the fusion of CK and NAT led to the formation of the NAGS enzyme with two-domain monofunctional or monodomain bifunctional characteristics. Evolutionary relationship insights on enzymes like ArgH(A), E. coli ArgB, E. coli ArgA, M. tuberculosis ArgA, and Moritella.
