Enzyme Information

4.1.3.24
Malyl-CoA lyase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q3J5L6
(1) (S)-malyl-CoA = acetyl-CoA + glyoxylate. (2) (2R,3S)-2-methylmalyl-CoA = propanoyl-CoA + glyoxylate.
-!- The enzymes from Rhodobacter species catalyze a step in the ethylmalonyl-CoA pathway for acetate assimilation. -!- The enzyme from halophilic bacteria participate in the methylaspartate cycle and catalyze the reaction in the direction of malyl-CoA formation. -!- The enzyme from the bacterium Chloroflexus aurantiacus, which participates in the 3-hydroxypropanoate cycle for carbon assimilation, also has the activity of EC 4.1.3.25.
4.1.3.25
(S)-citramalyl-CoA lyase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q3J5L6
(3S)-citramalyl-CoA = acetyl-CoA + pyruvate.
-!- The enzyme from the bacterium Clostridium tetanomorphum is a component of EC 4.1.3.22. -!- It also acts on (3S)-citramalyl thioacyl-carrier protein. -!- The enzyme from the bacterium Chloroflexus aurantiacus also has the activity of EC 4.1.3.24. -!- It has no activity with (3R)-citramalyl-CoA (cf. EC 4.1.3.46).
