MetaCyc Pathway: acetoacetate degradation (to acetyl CoA) in Variovorax sp. SCN45

MetaCyc Pathway: acetoacetate degradation (to acetyl CoA) in Variovorax sp. SCN45

Butyrate--acetoacetate CoA-transferase:
acetoacetate + acetyl-CoA→acetoacetyl-CoA + acetate (EC 2.8.3.9)

Acetyl-CoA C-acyltransferase (in reverse):
acetoacetyl-CoA + coenzyme A→2 acetyl-CoA (EC 2.3.1.16; 2.3.1.9)

Candidate genes for each reaction are identified from best hits to MetaCyc; by matching EC numbers (which are assigned by TIGRFam, SEED, or best hits to KEGG); or by matching SEED roles to KEGG reactions to MetaCyc reactions. See the "Protein" tab of each gene for more information
