Enzyme Information

2.3.3.16
Citrate synthase (unknown stereospecificity).
based on mapping to UniProt O34002
Acetyl-CoA + H(2)O + oxaloacetate = citrate + CoA.
-!- This entry has been included to accommodate those citrate synthases for which the stereospecificity with respect to C(2) of oxaloacetate has not been established (cf. EC 2.3.3.1 and EC 2.3.3.3).
2.3.3.5
2-methylcitrate synthase.
based on mapping to UniProt O34002
Propanoyl-CoA + H(2)O + oxaloacetate = (2S,3S)-2-hydroxybutane-1,2,3- tricarboxylate + CoA.
-!- The enzyme acts on acetyl-CoA, propanoyl-CoA, butanoyl-CoA and pentanoyl-CoA. -!- The relative rate of condensation of acetyl-CoA and oxaloacetate is 140% of that of propanoyl-CoA and oxaloacetate, but the enzyme is distinct from EC 2.3.3.1. -!- Oxaloacetate cannot be replaced by glyoxylate, pyruvate or 2-oxoglutarate. -!- Formerly EC 4.1.3.31.
