3-hydroxypropionyl-CoA Synthase

3-Hydroxypropionyl-CoA synthase (, ''3-hydroxypropionyl-CoA synthetase (AMP-forming)'', ''3-hydroxypropionate-CoA ligase'') is an enzyme with systematic name ''hydroxypropionate:CoA ligase (AMP-forming)''. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

: 3-hydroxypropionate + ATP + CoA $\rightleftharpoons$ 3-hydroxypropionyl-CoA + AMP + diphosphate

This enzyme catalyses a step in the 3-hydroxypropionate/4-hydroxybutyrate cycle.
