Gene data
MCAT- Name
- malonyl-CoA-acyl carrier protein transacylase
- Type
- protein-coding
- Aliases
- FASN2C, MCT, MCT1, MT, NET62, OPA15, fabD
The protein encoded by this gene is found exclusively in the mitochondrion, where it catalyzes the transfer of a malonyl group from malonyl-CoA to the mitochondrial acyl carrier protein. The encoded protein may be part of a fatty acid synthase complex that is more like the type II prokaryotic and plastid complexes rather than the type I human cytosolic complex. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012].
