== Function == | |||
'''ATP-citrate synthase''' (ACS) or '''ATP citrate lyase''' or '''citryl-CoA synthetase''' is part of the citrate cycle. It catalyzes the transformation of ADP, acetyl-CoA and oxaloacetate to ATP, citrate and CoA. ACS is the link between energy metabolism from carbohydrates to the production of fatty acids. | |||
