'''Malate synthase''' (MS) catalyzes the reversible conversion of acetyl-CoA, glyoxylate and water to [[R/S nomencalture|(S)]]-malate and CoA. MS participates in pyruvate, glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism. There are 2 isozymes of MS. '''MS G''' is formed during growth on glycolate<ref>PMID:12930982</ref> and '''MS A''' which metabolizes glyoxylate formed in the dissimilation of acetate.
