In

enzymology, a succinate-CoA ligase (ADP-forming) (EC 6.2.1.5) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

ATP + succinate + CoA ADP + phosphate + succinyl-CoA

The 3

succinate, and CoA, whereas its 3 products are ADP, phosphate, and succinyl-CoA
.

This enzyme belongs to the family of

(CO2 fixation).
