Description
This is a pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent enzyme that acts in concert with EC 1.1.1.103, L-threonine 3-dehydrogenase, in the degradation of threonine to form glycine. This threonine degradation pathway is common to prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and the two enzymes involved form a complex.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Synonyms
2-amino-3-ketobutyrate CoA ligase; 2-amino-3-ketobutyrate coenzyme A ligase; 2-amino-3-ketobutyrate-CoA ligase; glycine acetyltransferase; aminoacetone synthase; aminoacetone synthetase; KBL; AKB ligase
Reaction
acetyl-CoA + glycine = CoA + L-2-amino-3-oxobutanoate
