The enzyme citryl-CoA lyase (EC 4.1.3.34) catalyzes the chemical reaction

(3S)-citryl-CoA [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] acetyl-CoA + oxaloacetate

This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically the oxo-acid-lyases, which cleave carbon–carbon bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is (3S)-citryl-CoA oxaloacetate-lyase (acetyl-CoA-forming). This enzyme is also called (3S)-citryl-CoA oxaloacetate-lyase. This enzyme participates in citrate cycle (tca cycle).
