| Short Name | HIBYL-CoA-H |
| description | The enoyl-CoA hydratase/isomerase family contains a diverse set of enzymes including: enoyl-CoA hydratase, napthoate synthase, carnitate racemase, 3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA dehydratase and dodecanoyl-CoA delta-isomerase. This entry represents a subset of the enoyl-CoA hydratase/isomerase family. Proteins in this entry includes 3-hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA hydrolases (HIBYL-CoA-H) from eukaryotes and their homologues from bacteria. Human HIBYL-CoA-H is a mitochondrial enzyme that catalyses the fifth step in the valine catabolic pathway in eukaryotes, namely the conversion of 3-hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA to free 3-hydroxyisobutyrate [, ]. It also hydrolyses 3-hydroxypropionyl-CoA, giving it a dual role in a secondary pathway of propionate metabolism []. Deficiency of this enzyme is associated with Leigh-like disease [, ]. |
