Recombinant Human MLYCD Protein (M40-S491), His tagged

• Cat.No.: MLYCD-0229H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human 6His-TEV-MCD(M40-S491) (E58A, K59A, E278A, E279A, K280A) Protein was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Description: Catalyzes the conversion of malonyl-CoA to acetyl-CoA. In the fatty acid biosynthesis MCD selectively removes malonyl-CoA and thus assures that methyl-malonyl-CoA is the only chain elongating substrate for fatty acid synthase and that fatty acids with multiple methyl side chains are produced. In peroxisomes it may be involved in degrading intraperoxisomal malonyl-CoA, which is generated by the peroxisomal beta-oxidation of odd chain-length dicarboxylic fatty acids. Plays a role in the metabolic balance between glucose and lipid oxidation in muscle independent of alterations in insulin signaling. May play a role in controlling the extent of ischemic injury by promoting glucose oxidation.
