Fumigaclavine B O-acetyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.205, FgaAT) is an enzyme with systematic name acetyl-CoA:fumigaclavine B O-acetyltransferase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

acetyl-CoA + fumigaclavine B [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] CoA + fumigaclavine A

The enzyme participates in the biosynthesis of fumigaclavine C, an ergot alkaloid.
