The enzyme citramalate lyase catalyzes the chemical reaction
This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically the oxo-acid-lyases, which cleave carbon-carbon bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is -2-hydroxy-2-methylbutanedioate pyruvate-lyase. Other names in common use include citramalate pyruvate-lyase, citramalate synthase, citramalic-condensing enzyme, citramalate synthetase, citramalic synthase, -citramalate lyase, -citramalate pyruvate-lyase, citramalate pyruvate lyase, -citramalate pyruvate-lyase, and -2-hydroxy-2-methylbutanedioate pyruvate-lyase. This enzyme participates in c5-branched dibasic acid metabolism.
