In

enzymology, a tartronate O-hydroxycinnamoyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.106) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

sinapoyl-CoA + 2-hydroxymalonate CoA + sinapoyltartronate

Thus, the two

substrates of this enzyme are sinapoyl-CoA and 2-hydroxymalonate, whereas its two products are CoA and sinapoyltartronate
.

This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those acyltransferases transferring groups other than aminoacyl groups. The systematic name of this enzyme class is sinapoyl-CoA:2-hydroxymalonate O-(hydroxycinnamoyl)transferase. Other names in common use include tartronate sinapoyltransferase, and hydroxycinnamoyl-coenzyme-A:tartronate hydroxycinnamoyltransferase.
