Comment typeDescription
Alternative ProductsEvent=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=2; Name=1; IsoId=Q8IVS2-1; Sequence=Displayed; Name=2; IsoId=Q8IVS2-2; Sequence=VSP_010517, VSP_010518;
Catalytic ActivityMalonyl-CoA + an [acyl-carrier-protein] = CoA + a malonyl-[acyl-carrier-protein].
FunctionCatalyzes the transfer of a malonyl moiety from malonyl- CoA to the free thiol group of the phosphopantetheine arm of the mitochondrial ACP protein (NDUFAB1). This suggests the existence of the biosynthesis of fatty acids in mitochondrias.
PathwayLipid metabolism; fatty acid biosynthesis.
SimilarityBelongs to the type II malonyltransferase family.
Subcellular LocationMitochondrion .
