ENTRY       EC 4.1.3.29
NAME        Decylhomocitrate synthase
CLASS       Lyases
            Carbon-carbon lyases
            Oxo-acid-lyases
SYSNAME     3-Hydroxytetradecane-1,3,4-tricarboxylate 2-oxoglutarate-lyase
            $(CoA-acylating)
REACTION    3-Hydroxytetradecane-1,3,4-tricarboxylate + CoA = Dodecanoyl-CoA +
            H2O + 2-Oxoglutarate
SUBSTRATE   3-Hydroxytetradecane-1,3,4-tricarboxylate
            CoA
PRODUCT     Dodecanoyl-CoA
            H2O
            2-Oxoglutarate
COMMENT     In the reverse reaction decanoyl-CoA can act instead of
            dodecanoyl-CoA but 2-oxoglutarate cannot be replaced by
            oxaloacetate or pyruvate.
