MCAT - malonyl-CoA-acyl carrier protein transacylase Gene
Also Known as MT; MCT; MCT1; fabD; NET62; FASN2C
Species: Homo sapiens
About MCAT
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 205 orthologues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Ubiquitous expression in kidney (RPKM 9.6), testis (RPKM 4.7) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
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]
