Comments [?]

Function GTP-specific succinyl-CoA synthetase functions in the citric acid cycle (TCA), coupling the hydrolysis of succinyl-CoA to the synthesis of GTP and thus represents the only step of substrate-level phosphorylation in the TCA. The beta subunit provides nucleotide specificity of the enzyme and binds the substrate succinate, while the binding sites for coenzyme A and phosphate are found in the alpha subunit.
Catalytic activity RHEA:22120: CoA + GTP + succinate = GDP + phosphate + succinyl-CoA
EC 6.2.1.4
case <FTGroup:1>
Cofactor Mg(2+)
Note: Binds 1 Mg(2+) ion per subunit.
end case
Pathway Carbohydrate metabolism; tricarboxylic acid cycle; succinate from succinyl-CoA (ligase route): step 1/1.
Subunit Heterodimer of an alpha and a beta subunit. The beta subunit determines specificity for GTP.
Subcellular location Mitochondrion.
Similarity Belongs to the succinate/malate CoA ligase beta subunit family. GTP-specific subunit beta subfamily.
case not <AnyFeature:TransitM>
Miscellaneous This protein may be expected to contain an N-terminal transit peptide but none has been predicted.

Comments In animals, two different isoforms of SCS exist, one specific for ATP and the other specific for GTP (PubMed:9765291). The two isoforms include the same alpha-subunit, but different beta-subunits (PubMed:9765290). This is the subfamily of GTP-specific beta subunits.
