Succinate-citramalate CoA-transferase

Succinate-citramalate CoA-transferase

In enzymology, a succinate-citramalate CoA-transferase (EC number|2.8.3.7) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

:succinyl-CoA + citramalate ightleftharpoons succinate + citramalyl-CoA

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are succinyl-CoA and citramalate, whereas its two products are succinate and citramalyl-CoA.

This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically the CoA-transferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is succinyl-CoA:citramalate CoA-transferase. Other names in common use include itaconate CoA-transferase, citramalate CoA-transferase, citramalate coenzyme A-transferase, and succinyl coenzyme A-citramalyl coenzyme A transferase. This enzyme participates in c5-branched dibasic acid metabolism.
