In enzymology a 2-ethylmalate synthase (EC 2.3.3.6) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionacetyl-CoA + H2O + 2-oxobutanoate (R)-2-ethylmalate + CoAThe 3 substrates of this enzyme are acetyl-CoA H2O and 2-oxobutanoate whereas its two products are (R)-2-ethylmalate and CoA.This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases specifically those acyltransferases that convert acyl groups into alkyl groups on transfer.
