Coenzyme A transferases

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article for a few reasons. It was one of the only articles in the C rated biology list that obviously had to do with enzymes. I was also surprised to see it on this list, and when glancing over it, it looked like it had a fair amount of information on it, so I was curious to see why it was rated so low.

Evaluate the article
Though short, the lead section fulfils its purpose of introducing the topic. The first sentence clearly identifies the subject, and overall the paragraph gives an overview of the function of the family and where it is found.

The content was quite up to date, with many of the references being from the last ten years and the primary source being a review paper published last year. It gives a good overview of the subject.

The tone and balance was good. There were no unnecessary arguments or obvious biases.

The sources come from high quality peer reviewed literature. The links I tested all work. My biggest criticism of the whole paper would be in this category, as a large swath of this text comes from the first reference. The author writing those sections could have made a stronger effort to include more diverse sources when writing this material, especially since I can't imagine the research on this enzyme family is scarce.

The article was well written with no glaring grammatical errors.

There was only one image, which was a well labeled crystal structure of one of the enzymes in this group. Given how well studied this group is, the article could benefit from having more images, such as reactions and pathways these enzymes participate in.

There have not been any talk page discussions.

Overall, I thought this article was a good review on this topic, but I do not have a strong background in writing about enzymes, so I am not sure how meaningful that is coming from me.
