In
enzymology, a
cinnamoyl-CoA:phenyllactate CoA-transferase is an
enzyme that
catalyzes the
chemical reaction- (E)-cinnamoyl-CoA + (R)-phenyllactate (E)-cinnamate + (R)-phenyllactyl-CoA
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are (E)-cinnamoyl-CoA and (R)-phenyllactate, whereas its two products are (E)-cinnamate and (R)-phenyllactyl-CoA.
This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically the CoA-transferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is (E)-cinnamoyl-CoA:(R)-phenyllactate CoA-transferase. This enzyme is also called FldA.
