Comment typeDescription
Catalytic ActivityMalonyl-CoA + an [acyl-carrier-protein] = CoA + a malonyl-[acyl-carrier-protein].
Disruption PhenotypeEggs have a thin shell. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18245854}.
FunctionCatalyzes the transfer of a malonyl moiety from malonyl- CoA to the free thiol group of the phosphopantetheine arm of the ACP protein. This suggests the existence of the biosynthesis of fatty acids in mitochondrias (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
PathwayLipid metabolism; fatty acid biosynthesis.
SimilarityBelongs to the type II malonyltransferase family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationMitochondrion {ECO:0000305}.
