 == Function ==
-'''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.
