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 6.4.1.7

Accepted Name
2-oxoglutarate carboxylase.
Alternative Name(s)
Carboxylating factor for ICDH.
CFI.
OGC.
Oxalosuccinate synthetase.
Reaction catalysed
ATP + 2-oxoglutarate + HCO(3)(-) <=> ADP + phosphate + oxalosuccinate
Cofactor(s)
Biotin; Mg(2+).
Comment(s)
  • It was originally thought that this enzyme was a promoting factor for the carboxylation of 2-oxoglutarate by EC 1.1.1.41, but this has since been disproved.
  • The product of the reaction is unstable and is quickly converted into isocitrate by the action of EC 1.1.1.41.
