Figure 1

Overview of reactions catalyzed by malyl-CoA lyases, the β-subunit of citrate lyase, and canonical malate synthases. Green arrows represent reactions catalyzed by the malyl-CoA lyase in the 3-hydroxypropionate bi-cycle of C. aurantiacus. Red arrows represent reactions catalyzed by the malyl-CoA lyase in the ethylmalonyl-CoA pathway of R. sphaeroides. Note that all reactions catalyzed by malyl-CoA lyases are reversible. EC numbers for the different enzymes are provided.
