Function 1
Function descriptionMalate synthase, enzyme Catalyzes the condensation and subsequent hydrolysis of acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) and glyoxylate to form malate and CoA Acetyl-CoA + H2O + glyoxylate => malate + CoA Carbohydrate metabolism; glyoxylate cycle glyoxylate pathway enables bacteria to assimilate two-carbon compounds into the TCA cycle
