SYSTEMATIC NAME
IUBMB Comments
acetyl-CoA:malonyl-CoA C-acyltransferase (decarboxylating)
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.
