products description :
Principle of the Assay: This assay employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique. Antibody specific for malonyl CoA has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any malonyl CoA present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for malonyl CoA is added to the wells. After washing, avidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of malonyl CoA bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

ncbi summary :
The product of this gene catalyzes the breakdown of malonyl-CoA to acetyl-CoA and carbon dioxide. Malonyl-CoA is an intermediate in fatty acid biosynthesis, and also inhibits the transport of fatty acyl CoAs into mitochondria. Consequently, the encoded protein acts to increase the rate of fatty acid oxidation. It is found in mitochondria, peroxisomes, and the cytoplasm. Mutations in this gene result in malonyl-CoA decarboyxlase deficiency. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
uniprot summary :
Function: 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.4 PublicationsManual assertion based on experiment in:Ref.2. Catalytic activity: Malonyl-CoA = acetyl-CoA + CO2.5 PublicationsManual assertion based on experiment in:Ref.1. Enzyme regulation: Malonyl-CoA decarboxylase activity does not require any cofactors or divalent metal ions. Formation of interchain disulfide bonds leads to positive cooperativity between active sites and increases the affinity for malonyl-CoA and the catalytic efficiency (in vitro).2 PublicationsManual assertion based on experiment in:Ref.6
