3-ketoacid-CoA transferase -->
3-oxoacid-CoA transferase
<enzyme> An enzyme catalyzing the reversible conversion of acetoacetyl-CoA and succinate into succinyl-CoA and acetoacetate; malonyl-CoA can substitute for succinyl-CoA and a few other 3-oxo acids for the acetoacetate; an important step in order for the ketone bodies to serve as a fuel for extrahepatic tissues.

Synonym: 3-ketoacid-CoA transferase, acetoacetyl-succinic thiophorase.
