EC 5.4.1.3     
Accepted name: 2-methylfumaryl-CoA isomerase
Reaction: 2-methylfumaryl-CoA = 3-methylfumaryl-CoA

Glossary: 2-methylfumaryl-CoA = (E)-3-carboxy-2-methylprop-2-enoyl-CoA
3-methylfumaryl-CoA = (E)-3-carboxybut-2-enoyl-CoA
Other name(s): mesaconyl-CoA C1-C4 CoA transferase; Mct
Systematic name: 2-methylfumaryl-CoA 1,4-CoA-mutase
Comments: The enzyme, purified from the bacterium Chloroflexus aurantiacus, acts as an intramolecular CoA transferase and does not transfer CoA to free mesaconate. It is part of the 3-hydroxypropanoate cycle for carbon assimilation.
