EC 2.1.1.144     
Accepted name: trans-aconitate 2-methyltransferase
Reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + trans-aconitate = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + (E)-3-(methoxycarbonyl)pent-2-enedioate
For diagram of reaction, click here
Glossary: trans-aconitate = (E)-prop-1-ene-1,2,3-tricarboxylate
Systematic name: S-adenosyl-L-methionine:(E)-prop-1-ene-1,2,3-tricarboxylate 2′-O-methyltransferase
Comments: Also catalyses the formation of the methyl monoester of cis-aconitate, isocitrate and citrate, but more slowly. While the enzyme from Escherichia coli forms (E)-3-(methoxycarbonyl)-pent-2-enedioate as the product, that from Saccharomyces cerevisiae forms (E)-2-(methoxycarbonylmethyl)butenedioate and is therefore classified as a separate enzyme (cf. EC 2.1.1.145, trans-aconitate 3-methyltransferase).

EC 4.2.1.3     
Accepted name: aconitate hydratase
Reaction: citrate = isocitrate (overall reaction)
(1a) citrate = cis-aconitate + H2O
(1b) cis-aconitate + H2O = isocitrate
For diagram of the citric acid cycle, click here and for diagram of the glyoxylate cycle, click here
Glossary: isocitrate = (1R,2S)-1-hydroxypropane-1,2,3-tricarboxylate (previously known as threo-Ds-isocitrate)
cis-aconitate = (Z)-prop-1-ene-1,2,3-tricarboxylate
Other name(s): cis-aconitase; aconitase; AcnB; 2-methylaconitate hydratase; citrate(isocitrate) hydro-lyase
Systematic name: citrate(isocitrate) hydro-lyase (cis-aconitate-forming)
Comments: Besides interconverting citrate and cis-aconitate, it also interconverts cis-aconitate with isocitrate and, hence, interconverts citrate and isocitrate. The equilibrium mixture is 91% citrate, 6% isocitrate and 3% aconitate. cis-Aconitate is used to designate the isomer (Z)-prop-1-ene-1,2,3-tricarboxylate. An iron-sulfur protein, containing a [4Fe-4S] cluster to which the substrate binds.

EC 4.2.1.117     
Accepted name: 2-methylcitrate dehydratase (2-methyl-trans-aconitate forming)
Reaction: (2S,3S)-2-methylcitrate = 2-methyl-trans-aconitate + H2O
Glossary: (2S,3S)-2-methylcitrate = (2S,3S)-2-hydroxybutane-1,2,3-tricarboxylate
2-methyl-trans-aconitate = (2E)-but-2-ene-1,2,3-tricarboxylate
Systematic name: (2S,3S)-2-hydroxybutane-1,2,3-tricarboxylate hydro-lyase (2-methyl-trans-aconitate-forming)
Comments: Catalyses the dehydration of (2S,3S)-2-methylcitrate, forming the trans isomer of 2-methyl-aconitate (unlike EC 4.2.1.79, which forms only the cis isomer). Part of a propionate degradation pathway. The enzyme from Shewanella oneidensis can also accept citrate and cis-aconitate, but activity with (2S,3S)-2-methylcitrate was approximately 2.5-fold higher. 2-methylisocitrate and isocitrate were not substrates [1]. An iron-sulfur protein.

EC 5.3.3.7     
Accepted name: aconitate Δ-isomerase
Reaction: trans-aconitate = cis-aconitate
Glossary: cis-aconitate = (Z)-prop-1-ene-1,2,3-tricarboxylate
trans-aconitate = (E)-prop-1-ene-1,2,3-tricarboxylate
Other name(s): aconitate isomerase
Systematic name: aconitate Δ23-isomerase
Comments: cis-Aconitate is used to designate the isomer (Z)-prop-1-ene-1,2,3-tricarboxylate. This isomerization could take place either in a direct cis-trans interconversion or by an allylic rearrangement; the enzyme has been shown to catalyse the latter change.
