2-Methylcitrate synthase
Definition:
EC Tree > 2 Transferases > 2.3 Acyltransferases > 2.3.3 Acyl groups converted into alkyl groups on transfer > 2.3.3.5 2-methylcitrate synthase
2-Methylcitrate synthase condenses propanoyl-CoA (also acetyl/butanoyl/pentanoyl-CoA) with oxaloacetate into 2-methylcitrate, the propionate-assimilation step of the methylcitrate cycle.
