EC 2.3.3.16     
Accepted name: citrate synthase (unknown stereospecificity)
Reaction: acetyl-CoA + H2O + oxaloacetate = citrate + CoA
Other name(s): citrate condensing enzyme; CoA-acetylating citrate oxaloacetate-lyase; citrate synthetase; citric synthase; citric-condensing enzyme; citrogenase; condensing enzyme (ambiguous); oxaloacetate transacetase; oxalacetic transacetase
Systematic name: acetyl-CoA:oxaloacetate C-acetyltransferase (thioester-hydrolysing)
Comments: This entry has been included to accommodate those citrate synthases for which the stereospecificity with respect to C-2 of oxaloacetate has not been established [cf. EC 2.3.3.1, citrate (Si)-synthase and EC 2.3.3.3, citrate (Re)-synthase].
