Malonyl-S-ACP decarboxylase

Malonyl-S-ACP decarboxylase (, malonyl-S-acyl-carrier protein decarboxylase, MdcD/MdcE, MdcD,E) is an enzyme with systematic name malonyl-(acyl-carrier-protein) carboxy-lyase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction


 * a malonyl-[acyl-carrier protein] + H+ $$\rightleftharpoons$$ an acetyl-[acyl-carrier protein] + CO2

This enzyme comprises the beta and gamma subunits of the enzyme EC 4.1.1.88.
