Aconitase catalyzes the reversible isomerization of citrate and isocitrate as part of the TCA cycle
Bacterial Aconitase-like catalytic domain. Aconitase (aconitate hydratase or citrate hydrolyase) catalyzes the reversible isomerization of citrate and isocitrate as part of the TCA cycle. Cis-aconitate is formed as an intermediate product during the course of the reaction. This distinct subfamily is found only in bacteria and Archaea. Its exact characteristics are not known.
