The stereospecificity of this enzyme is opposite to that of EC 2.3.3.3, citrate (Re)-synthase, which is found in some anaerobes. Citrate synthase for which the stereospecificity with respect to C-2 of oxaloacetate has not been established are included in EC 2.3.3.16, citrate synthase (unknown stereospecificity).

detection of peptides within the enzyme which show strong binding with small heat shock proteins. Thermostabilization of thermosensitive citrate synthase by small heat shock proteins is achieved by stabilization of the C- and N-terminae in the protruding thermosensitive softspot, which is absent in the thermostable forms of the enzymes dimer

study on the mechanism of aggregation during refolding of enzyme and its prevention using cosolvent additives of the polyol series. No parallel correlation between the folding effect and the general stabilization is observed. Glycerol is most effective in enhancing the refolding yield of citrate synthase, and a complete recovery of enzymatic activity is observed at 7 M glycerol and 0.01 mg per ml protein. Kinetic experiments suggest that polyols act very early in the refolding process. Both the thermodynamic and the kinetic aspects are critical in the folding process
