Aconitase is the enzyme that reversibly interconverts
citric acid, cis-aconitic acid, and isocitric acid in the
tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) (formerly known as the citric
acid or Krebs cycle) by dehydration and hydration reactions.
Aconitase is the target for fluoroacetate, a potent rodenticide,
that condenses with oxaloacetate to yield an aconitase inhibitor
(fluorocitric acid), with resultant accumulation of citric acid
and thus blockage of the TCA cycle, leading to an inhibition
of aerobic energy production. |
| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
Aconitase may be usefull in diabetes research as well as to study structural conservation between iron-responsive element binding proteins (IRE-BP) and isomerases . | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Aconitase catalyses the stereo-specific isomerization of citrate to isocitrate via cis-aconitate in the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Aconitase is inhibited by cyanide, sulfide and copper and mercury at low concentrations. It is competitively inhibited by trans-aconitate. Aconitase contains an internal Fe-S cluster which is responsible for its activity. |
