IntEnz Enzyme Nomenclature
EC 2.8.3.9

Names

Accepted name:
butyrate—acetoacetate CoA-transferase
Other names:
butyryl coenzyme A—acetoacetate coenzyme A-transferase
butyryl-CoA—acetoacetate CoA-transferase
Systematic name:
butanoyl-CoA:acetoacetate CoA-transferase

Reaction

Comments:

Butanoate, acetoacetate and their CoA thioesters are the preferred substrates, but the enzyme also acts, more slowly, on the derivatives of a number of C2 to C6 monocarboxylic acids.
