Identification
Name2-isopropylmalate synthase 2, mitochondrial
Synonyms
  • Alpha-IPM synthase 2
  • Alpha-isopropylmalate synthase 2
  • Alpha-isopropylmalate synthase II
Gene NameLEU9
Enzyme Class
Biological Properties
General FunctionInvolved in 2-isopropylmalate synthase activity
Specific FunctionCatalyzes the condensation of the acetyl group of acetyl-CoA with 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate (2-oxoisovalerate) to form 3-carboxy-3-hydroxy-4-methylpentanoate (2-isopropylmalate). Redundant to LEU4, responsible of about 20% of alpha-IPMS activity. Involved in leucine synthesis
