Class Transferases;
Transferring sulfur-containing groups;
CoA-transferases
BRITE hierarchy
Sysname succinyl-CoA:(R)-2-benzylsuccinate CoA-transferase
Reaction(IUBMB) succinyl-CoA + (R)-2-benzylsuccinate = succinate +
(R)-2-benzylsuccinyl-CoA [RN:R05588]
Reaction(KEGG) R05588
Show
Substrate succinyl-CoA [CPD:C00091];
(R)-2-benzylsuccinate [CPD:C09816]
Product succinate [CPD:C00042];
(R)-2-benzylsuccinyl-CoA [CPD:C09817]
Comment Involved in anaerobic catabolism of toluene and is a strictly
toluene-induced enzyme that catalyses the reversible regio- and
enantio-selective synthesis of (R)-2-benzylsuccinyl-CoA. The enzyme
from Thauera aromatica is inactive when (R)-benzylsuccinate is
replaced by (S)-benzylsuccinate.
