ATP citrate synthase (also ATP citrate lyase (ACLY)) is an enzyme that in animals catalyzes an important step in fatty acid biosynthesis. [2] By converting citrate to acetyl-CoA , the enzyme links carbohydrate metabolism , which yields citrate as an intermediate , with fatty acid biosynthesis , which consumes acetyl-CoA. [ 3 ]
Citrate synthase (E.C. 2.3.3.1 (previously 4.1.3.7)) is an enzyme that exists in nearly all living cells. It functions as a pace-making enzyme in the first step of the citric acid cycle (or Krebs cycle). [5] Citrate synthase is located within eukaryotic cells in the mitochondrial matrix, but is encoded by nuclear DNA rather than
Chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (or CAT) is a bacterial enzyme (EC 2.3.1.28) [1] that detoxifies the antibiotic chloramphenicol and is responsible for chloramphenicol resistance in bacteria. [2] This enzyme covalently attaches an acetyl group from acetyl-CoA to chloramphenicol, which prevents chloramphenicol from binding to ribosomes .
In molecular biology, the citrate synthase family of proteins includes the enzymes citrate synthase EC 2.3.3.1, and the related enzymes 2-methylcitrate synthase EC 2.3.3.5 and ATP citrate lyase EC 2.3.3.8. Citrate synthase is a member of a small family of enzymes that can directly form a carbon-carbon bond without the presence of metal ion ...
In enzymology, a citrate (Re)-synthase (EC 2.3.3.3) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction acetyl-CoA + H 2 O + oxaloacetate ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } citrate + CoA The 3 substrates of this enzyme are acetyl-CoA , H 2 O , and oxaloacetate , whereas its two products are citrate and CoA .
Oxoglutarate dehydrogenase is a key control point in the citric acid cycle. It is inhibited by its products, succinyl CoA and NADH.A high energy charge in the cell will also be inhibitive.
In enzymology, a 2-methylcitrate synthase (EC 2.3.3.5) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction propanoyl-CoA + H 2 O + oxaloacetate ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } (2R,3S)-2-hydroxybutane-1,2,3-tricarboxylate + CoA
The systematic name of this enzyme class is S-acetylphosphopantetheine:deacetyl-[citrate-oxaloacetate-lyase((pro -3S)-CH2COO-->acetate)] S-acetyltransferase. Other names in common use include S-acetyl phosphopantetheine:deacetyl citrate lyase , S-acetyltransferase , and deacetyl-[citrate-(pro-3S)-lyase] acetyltransferase .
