L-malyl-CoA/beta-methylmalyl-CoA lyase

UniProtKB accession:  Q3J5L6

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Involved in the ethylmalonyl-CoA pathway for acetate assimilation. Catalyzes the reversible condensation of glyoxylate and acetyl-CoA to L-malyl-CoA and the reversible condensation of glyoxylate and propionyl-CoA to yield beta-methylmalyl-CoA. It is also able to catalyze the cleavage of (S)-citramalyl-CoA to yield acetyl-CoA and pyruvate, although this reaction is not involved in the ethylmalonyl-CoA pathway.
