In enzymology a 2-methylcitrate synthase (EC 2.3.3.5) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionpropanoyl-CoA + H2O + oxaloacetate (2R3S)-2-hydroxybutane-123-tricarboxylate + CoAThe 3 substrates of this enzyme are propanoyl-CoA H2O and oxaloacetate whereas its two products are (2R3S)-2-hydroxybutane-123-tricarboxylate and CoA.This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases specifically those acyltransferases that convert acyl groups into alkyl groups on transfer.
