In enzymology, malonate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase (acetylating) (EC 1.2.1.18) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The three substrates of this enzyme are 3-oxopropanoic acid, coenzyme A (CoA), and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Its products are acetyl-CoA, carbon dioxide, reduced NADH, and a proton. This enzyme can use the alternative cofactor, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate. [1] [2] [3]
The enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the aldehyde or oxo group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 3-oxopropanoate:NAD(P)+ oxidoreductase (decarboxylating, CoA-acetylating). This enzyme is also called malonic semialdehyde oxidative decarboxylase. This enzyme participates in 4 metabolic pathways: inositol metabolism, alanine and aspartate metabolism, beta-alanine metabolism, and propanoate metabolism.
