Gene information for MCAT (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID27349
Official gene symbolMCAT
Full namemalonyl CoA:ACP acyltransferase (mitochondrial)
Aliases,FASN2C,MCT,MGC47838,MT,NET62,fabD,
Gene summaryThe 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. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
