BRITE hierarchy
Sysname
acetyl-CoA:malonyl-CoA C-acetyltransferase (decarboxylating)
Reaction(IUBMB)
acetyl-CoA + malonyl-CoA = acetoacetyl-CoA + CoA + CO2 [RN:
R09527 ]
Reaction(KEGG)
Substrate
Product
Comment
The enzyme from the soil bacterium Streptomyces sp. CL190 produces acetoacetyl-CoA to be used for mevalonate production via the mevalonate pathway.
Unlike the homologous EC
2.3.1.180 (beta-ketoacyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] synthase III), this enzyme does not accept malonyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] as a substrate.
History
EC 2.3.1.194 created 2011
Orthology
K21378 acetoacetyl-CoA synthase
