Catalysis of the transfer of an acyl group, other than amino-acyl, from one compound (donor) to another (acceptor). Catalysis of the transfer of a myristoyl (CH3-[CH2]12-CO-) group to an acceptor molecule. Catalysis of the reaction: tetradecanoyl-CoA + glycyl-peptide = CoA + N-tetradecanoylglycyl-peptide. Catalysis of the reaction: myristoyl-CoA + acetyl-CoA = 3-oxopalmitoyl-CoA + CoA. Catalysis of the transfer of an myristoyl group to a sulfur atom on the cysteine of a protein molecule. Catalysis of the generalized reaction: acyl-carrier + reactant = acyl-reactant + carrier.
