(2E)-glutaconyl-CoA + H+ + Na+(in) (2E)-butenoyl-CoA + CO

+ Na+(out)

Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, (2E)-glutaconyl-CoA, and two products, (2E)-butenoyl-CoA and CO2. During the process, an sodium ion is transported across the membrane. Previously, this enzyme was classified as EC 4.1.1.70.[1][2]

This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically the carboxy-lyases, which cleave carbon-carbon bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 4-carboxybut-2-enoyl-CoA carboxy-lyase (but-2-enoyl-CoA-forming). Other names in common use include glutaconyl coenzyme A decarboxylase, pent-2-enoyl-CoA carboxy-lyase, and 4-carboxybut-2-enoyl-CoA carboxy-lyase. This enzyme participates in benzoate degradation via coa ligation and butanoate metabolism.

As a decarboxylase, the enzyme requires biotin for its function.[1][2]
