| acetyl-CoA c-acetyltransferase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the reversible formation of acetoacetyl-CoA from two molecules of acetyl-CoA. Chemical name: Acetyl-CoA:acetyl-CoA C-acetyltransferase Registry number: EC 2.3.1.9 (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| acetyl-CoA c-acyltransferase | <enzyme> Enzyme that catalyses the final step of fatty acid oxidation in which acetyl-CoA is released and the CoA ester of a fatty acid two carbons shorter is formed. Chemical name: Acyl-CoA:acetyl-CoA C-acyltransferase Registry number: EC 2.3.1.16 (12 Dec 1998) |
| acetyl-CoA carboxylase | <enzyme> A carboxylating enzyme that catalyses the conversion of ATP, acetyl-CoA, and hco3- to ADP, orthophosphate, and malonyl-CoA. It is a biotinyl-protein that also catalyses transcarboxylation. The plant enzyme also carboxylates propanoyl-CoA and butanoyl-CoA Chemical name: Acetyl-CoA:carbon-dioxide ligase (ADP-forming) Registry number: EC 6.4.1.2 (12 Dec 1998) |
