citrate lyase activation
MetaCyc:P2-PWY
The Escherichia coli K-12 protein core of citrate lyase maturation: CitG forms the triphosphoribosyl-dephospho-CoA precursor from ATP and dephospho-CoA; CitX attaches the prosthetic group to the dedicated apo acyl-carrier protein; CitC acetylates its thiol using acetate and ATP. The endpoint is acetylated carrier, not citrate cleavage. Whole apo, holo and acetylated ACP states retain separate generic Rhea protein identifiers and do not identify a particular protein sequence. CitG/CitX have direct biochemical support; the P77390 CitC assignment combines reviewed catalytic annotation, an explicit EcoCyc direct-assay GO mapping and the primary E. coli ligase observation, whose full paper was not inspected. This record does not claim isolated sequence-specific CitC purification or activity in every K-12 strain. AMP-ACP is an off-pathway side product. The multispecies source's alternative acetyltransferase and deacetylase branches are excluded; no citrate-lyase assembly stoichiometry or bound-metal requirement is inferred from assay conditions.

Curation history
- claude-code
- CREATE — Add citrate lyase activation with explicit carrier states and CitG, CitX and CitC evidence
Curated MetaCyc:P2-PWY from native pathway objects, reviewed UniProt, directed Rhea chemistry and inspected primary evidence. Records three reactions, distinct generic apo/holo/acetyl carrier states, 22 edges and 36 evidence blocks. Narrow native/closed schema, independently verified identifiers, all 14 Rhea side occurrences and elemental/charge balance, literal quotes and target KGX metadata checks passed before this event. CitC full-text access and sequence-versus-generic-carrier limits remain explicit; unsupported assemblies, metals and alternate taxon branches were excluded. Full-corpus gates and independent review are recorded separately in this batch research directory.

- GENERAL — Correct the creation-history actor attribution
The preceding immutable history record history/records/citrate-lyase-activation/2026-10-10T230314Z-claude-code-9e9c5c.yaml inherited the scaffolder default actor name claude-code. The actual curator was Codex (gpt-6), as its model and agent_tool fields already indicate. This append-only correction preserves the original event and corrects the actor name to codex. The pathway data and scientific assertions are unchanged.
