Protein name Succinyl-CoA:3-ketoacid coenzyme A transferase 2, mitochondrial (EC 2.8.3.5) (3-oxoacid CoA-transferase 2A) (Testis-specific succinyl-CoA:3-oxoacid CoA-transferase) (SCOT-t)
Protein function Key enzyme for ketone body catabolism. Transfers the CoA moiety from succinate to acetoacetate. Formation of the enzyme-CoA intermediate proceeds via an unstable anhydride species formed between the carboxylate groups of the enzyme and substrate
