EC 2.8.3.27     
Accepted name: propanoyl-CoA:succinate CoA transferase
Reaction: propanoyl-CoA + succinate = propanoate + succinyl-CoA
Other name(s): succinyl-CoA:propionate CoA-transferase; propionyl-CoA:succinyl-CoA transferase; ASCT; scpC (gene name)
Systematic name: propanoyl-CoA:succinate CoA transferase
Comments: The enzyme is most specific in Escherichia coli, where the preferred substrates are propanoyl-CoA and succinate. In other organisms, the enzyme uses acetyl-CoA at the same rate as propanoyl-CoA (cf. EC 2.8.3.18, succinyl-CoA:acetate CoA-transferase).
