Trans-feruloyl-CoA synthase

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In enzymology, a trans-feruloyl-CoA synthase (EC 6.2.1.34) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

ferulic acid + CoASH + ATP trans-feruloyl-CoA + products of ATP breakdown

The 3 substrates of this enzyme are ferulic acid, CoASH, and ATP, whereas its two products are trans-feruloyl-CoA and products of ATP breakdown.

This enzyme belongs to the family of ligases, specifically those forming carbon-sulfur bonds as acid-thiol ligases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is trans-ferulate:CoASH ligase (ATP-hydrolysing). This enzyme is also called trans-feruloyl-CoA synthetase.
