In enzymology a 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate hydroxymethyltransferase (EC 2.1.2.11) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction510-methylenetetrahydrofolate + 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate + H2O tetrahydrofolate + 2-dehydropantoateThe 3 substrates of this enzyme are 510-methylenetetrahydrofolate 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate and H2O whereas its two products are tetrahydrofolate and 2-dehydropantoate.This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases that transfer one-carbon groups specifically the hydroxymethyl- formyl- and related transferases.
