| Accepted name: |
branched-chain-fatty-acid kinase |
| Reaction: |
ATP + 2-methylpropanoate = ADP + 2-methylpropanoyl phosphate |
| Other name(s): |
isobutyrate kinase |
| Systematic name: |

| Comments: |
3-Methylbutanoate, 2-methylbutanoate, pentanoate, butanoate and propanoate can also act as acceptors (cf. EC 2.7.2.7 butyrate kinase). |
