sucD2

Gene
sucD2
Protein
Succinate--CoA ligase [ADP-forming] subunit alpha 2
Organism
Archaeoglobus fulgidus (strain ATCC 49558 / VC-16 / DSM 4304 / JCM 9628 / NBRC 100126)
Length
287 amino acids
Function
Succinyl-CoA synthetase functions in the citric acid cycle (TCA), coupling the hydrolysis of succinyl-CoA to the synthesis of either ATP or GTP and thus represents the only step of substrate-level phosphorylation in the TCA. The alpha subunit of the enzyme binds the substrates coenzyme A and phosphate, while succinate binding and nucleotide specificity is provided by the beta subunit.
Similarity
Belongs to the succinate/malate CoA ligase alpha subunit family.
