A new class EC 7, Translocases, has been added to the EC list. It will be part of ENZYME from release 2018_10. Read more about EC 7 here.

ENZYME entry: EC 2.3.3.5

Accepted Name
2-methylcitrate synthase.
Alternative Name(s)
2-methylcitrate oxaloacetate-lyase.
MCS.
Methylcitrate synthase.
Methylcitrate synthetase.
Reaction catalysed
Propanoyl-CoA + H(2)O + oxaloacetate <=> (2S,3S)-2-hydroxybutane-1,2,3-tricarboxylate + CoA
Comment(s)
  • 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.
