Enzyme Commission Number
EC 4.1.1.94
Product Overview
High-quality enzyme products.
Well-established quality management system.
Reaction
(S)-ethylmalonyl-CoA = butanoyl-CoA + CO2
Systematic Name
(S)-ethylmalonyl-CoA carboxy-lyase (butanoyl-CoA-forming)
Function
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, propanoyl-CoA carboxylase. It prefers the S isomer, and can decarboxylate (R)-ethylmalonyl-CoA with lower efficiency. cf. EC 7.2.4.1, (S)-methylmalonyl-CoA decarboxylase (sodium-transporting).
