Template:Short description Template:Infobox enzyme In enzymology, an acid—CoA ligase (GDP-forming) (Template:EnzExplorer) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- GTP + an acid + CoA GDP + phosphate + acyl-CoA
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are GTP, acid, and CoA, whereas its 3 products are GDP, phosphate, and acyl-CoA.
This enzyme belongs to the family of ligases, specifically those forming carbon-sulfur bonds as acid-thiol ligases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is acid:CoA ligase (GDP-forming). Other names in common use include acyl-CoA synthetase (GDP-forming), and acyl coenzyme A synthetase (guanosine diphosphate forming).
