IPR011076 is a Malate synthase superfamily.
<p>Malate synthase (MS) ([ec:2.3.3.9]) catalyses the aldol condensation of glyoxylate with acetyl-CoA to form malate as part of the second step of the glyoxylate bypass and an alternative to the tricarboxylic acid cycle in bacteria, fungi and plants. There have been identified two isoforms, A and G (MSA and MSG, respectively) that differ in size and is attributed to an inserted α/β domain in MSG that may have regulatory function [[cite:PUB00051135], [cite:PUB00029759]]. MSA and MSG consist of an N-terminal α-helical clasp domain, a central TIM-barrel domain and a C-terminal helical plug domain. In malate synthases, the TIM β/α-barrel fold and the C-terminal helical domain are well conserved and the cleft between them forms the active site [[cite:PUB00051135], [cite:PUB00029759], [cite:PUB00014321]].</p>

GO predictions are based solely on the InterPro-to-GO mappings published by EMBL-EBI, which are in turn based on the mapping of predicted domains to the InterPro dataset. The InterPro-to-GO mapping was last updated on , while the GO metadata was last updated on .

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Molecular function | Catalytic activity | Catalysis of a biochemical reaction at physiological temperatures. In biologically catalyzed reactions, the reactants are known as substrates, and the catalysts are naturally occurring macromolecular substances known as enzymes. Enzymes possess specific binding sites for substrates, and are usually composed wholly or largely of protein, but RNA that has catalytic activity (ribozyme) is often also regarded as enzymatic. |
