Reaction

EC Number Reaction Comment Organism Reaction ID
2.3.3.9 acetyl-CoA + glyoxylate + H2O = (S)-malate + CoA compulsory-order mechanism, glyoxylate being the first-binding substrate, glyoxylate triggers a conformational change in the enzyme and as a consequence, the correctly shaped binding site for acetyl-CoA is created Zea mays
