| - | + | Fumarase C | |
| + | Found in E. Coli, Fumarase C is an enzyme that catalyzes L-malate and fumarate. It belongs to a family of enzymes that includes aspartase, arginosuccinate lyase, adenlosuccinate lyase, and gamma-crysatallin. It is tetrameric and has approximately 460 amino acids in each monomer.
