BRITE hierarchy
Sysname
(S)-ethylmalonyl-CoA carboxy-lyase (butanoyl-CoA-forming)
Reaction(IUBMB)
(S)-ethylmalonyl-CoA = butanoyl-CoA + CO2 [RN:
R09958 ]
Reaction(KEGG)
Substrate
(S)-ethylmalonyl-CoA [CPD:
C18026 ]
Product
Comment
The enzyme, which exists in all vertebrates, decarboxylates ethylmalonyl-CoA, a potentially toxic compound that is formed in low amounts by the activity of EC
6.4.1.2 , acetyl-CoA carboxylase and EC
6.4.1.3 , propionyl-CoA carboxylase. It prefers the S isomer, and can decarboxylate (R)-ethylmalonyl-CoA with lower efficiency. cf. EC
7.2.4.3 , (S)-methylmalonyl-CoA decarboxylase (sodium-transporting).
History
EC 4.1.1.94 created 2012
