Term Name: | citrate (Re)-synthase activity |
---|---|
Synonyms: | (R)-citrate synthase activity, acetyl-CoA:oxaloacetate C-acetyltransferase [thioester-hydrolysing, (pro-R)-carboxymethyl-forming], citrate oxaloacetate-lyase ((pro-3R)-CH(2)COO(-)->acetyl-CoA) activity, citrate oxaloacetate-lyase [(pro-3R)-CH2COO-rightacetyl-CoA], Re-citrate-synthase activity |
Definition: | Catalysis of the reaction: acetyl-CoA + H2O + oxaloacetate = citrate + CoA, where the acetyl group is added to the re-face of oxaloacetate; acetyl-CoA provides the two carbon atoms of the pro-R carboxymethyl group. |
