Descriptor coenzima A transferasas
Entry term(s) CoA transferasas
Scope note: Enzimas que transfieren residuos de coenzima A de acil- o acetil CoA a varios aceptores carboxílicos formándose un éster de tiol. Las enzimas de este grupo intervienen en el metabolismo de los cuerpos cetónicos y en la utilización de acetoacetato en las mitocondrias. EC 2.8.3.
