ENZYME entry: EC 2.3.1.29

Accepted Name
glycine C-acetyltransferase
Alternative Name(s)
2-amino-3-ketobutyrate coenzyme A ligase
Reaction catalysed
acetyl-CoA + glycine <=> (2S)-2-amino-3-oxobutanoate + CoA
Comment(s)
  • Acts in concert with EC 1.1.1.103 in the degradation of threonine to form glycine.
  • This threonine degradation pathway is common to prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and the two enzymes involved form a complex.
