Citrate lyase deacetylase explained

[citrate-(pro-3S)-lyase] thiolesterase
Ec Number:	3.1.2.16
Cas Number:	58319-93-0
Go Code:	0047778

The enzyme citrate lyase deacetylase (EC 3.1.2.16) catalyzes the reaction

acetyl-[citrate (pro-3''S'')-lyase] + H₂O = holo-[citrate (pro-3''S'')-lyase] + acetate

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on thioester bonds. The systematic name is acetyl-[citrate-(pro-3''S'')-lyase] hydrolase. This enzyme is also called [citrate-(pro-3''S'')-lyase] thiolesterase.
