Malonyl CoA reductase (malonate semialdehyde-forming)

Malonyl CoA reductase (malonate semialdehyde-forming) (, NADP-dependent malonyl CoA reductase, malonyl CoA reductase (NADP)) is an enzyme with systematic name malonate semialdehyde:NADP+ oxidoreductase (malonate semialdehyde-forming). This enzyme catalyse the following chemical reaction


 * malonate semialdehyde + CoA + NADP+ $$\rightleftharpoons$$ malonyl-CoA + NADPH + H+

Requires Mg2+. Catalyses the reduction of malonyl-CoA to malonate semialdehyde.
