Glutaconate CoA-transferase

Template:Short description Template:Infobox enzyme In enzymology, a glutaconate CoA-transferase (Template:EC number) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

acetyl-CoA + (E)-glutaconate $\rightleftharpoons$ acetate + glutaconyl-1-CoA

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are acetyl-CoA and (E)-glutaconate, whereas its two products are acetate and glutaconyl-1-CoA.

This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically the CoA-transferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is acetyl-CoA:(E)-glutaconate CoA-transferase. This enzyme participates in styrene degradation and butanoate metabolism.
