Citrate synthase exists in nearly all cells, and is responsible for catalyzing the first reaction in the citric acid cycle: the condensation of acetyl-CoA and oxaloacetate to form citrate. Citrate synthase consists of 437 amino acids, which are organized in to two identical subunits. Citrate synthase is considered a of a single amino acid chain monomer. Each subunit consists of 20 alpha-helicies. Alpha-helicies make up the majority of the enzymes , with few beta sheets. The a- helicies are represented in purple, while the B- sheets are in blue. The in the backbone are shown in yellow. The are represented in gray. The are represented in pink. represented by the blue spheres. A ligand is represented in purple. are depicted in ball and stick and the rest of the protein is in ribbon. are shown in black.
