Enzyme Information

2.3.3.20
Acyl-CoA:acyl-CoA alkyltransferase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q8PDX2
2 an acyl-CoA + H(2)O = a (2R)-2-alkyl-3-oxoalkanoate + 2 CoA.
-!- The enzyme, found in certain bacterial species, catalyzes a head- to-head non-decarboxylative Claisen condensation of two acyl-CoA molecules, resulting in formation of a 2-alkyl-3-oxoalkanoic acid. -!- It is part of a pathway for the production of olefins.
