Enzyme Information

2.3.3.14
Homocitrate synthase.
based on mapping to UniProt O87198
Acetyl-CoA + H(2)O + 2-oxoglutarate = (R)-2-hydroxybutane-1,2,4- tricarboxylate + CoA.
-!- Belongs in the alpha-aminoadipate pathway of lysine synthesis, along with EC 4.2.1.36. -!- Also acts with oxaloacetate as substrate, but more slowly. -!- Formerly EC 4.1.3.21.
