Citrate dehydratase

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In enzymology, a citrate dehydratase (EC 4.2.1.4) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

citrate cis-aconitate + H₂O

Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, citrate, and two products, cis-aconitate and H₂O.

This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically the hydro-lyases, which cleave carbon-oxygen bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is citrate hydro-lyase (cis-aconitate-forming). This enzyme is also called citrate hydro-lyase.
