Comments [?]

Function Involved in the catabolism of short chain fatty acids (SCFA) via the 2-methylcitrate cycle (propionate degradation route). Catalyzes the thermodynamically favored C-C bond cleavage of (2R,3S)-2-methylisocitrate to yield pyruvate and succinate via an alpha-carboxy-carbanion intermediate.
Catalytic activity RHEA:16809: (2S,3R)-3-hydroxybutane-1,2,3-tricarboxylate = pyruvate + succinate
EC 4.1.3.30
Cofactor Mg(2+)
Pathway Organic acid metabolism; propanoate degradation.
Subunit Homotetramer; dimer of dimers.
Similarity Belongs to the isocitrate lyase/PEP mutase superfamily. Methylisocitrate lyase family.
