In enzymology a N-acetylglucosamine deacetylase (EC 3.5.1.33) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionN-acetyl-D-glucosamine + H2O D-glucosamine + acetateThus the two substrates of this enzyme are N-acetyl-D-glucosamine and H2O whereas its two products are D-glucosamine and acetate.This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases those acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds other than peptide bonds specifically in linear amides.
