Type: | Family | Name: | Trans-aconitate 2-methyltransferase |
Description: | Trans-aconitate methyltransferases in bacteria catalyse the monomethyl esterification of trans-aconitate. Trans-aconitate is an effective inhibitor of aconitase, with potentially toxic results, as aconitase plays an essential role in the conversion of citrate to isocitrate in the tricarboxylic acid cycle []. | Short Name: | Trans-aconitate_MeTrfase |
