2.3.3.1Gene ontology ID
GO:0004108
Definition
Catalysis of the reaction: acetyl-CoA + H2O + oxaloacetate = citrate + CoA, where the acetyl group is added to the si-face of oxaloacetate; acetyl-CoA thus provides the two carbon atoms of the pro-S carboxymethyl group
Comment
Note that this function was formerly EC:4.1.3.7.
