ACACA(Acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1, ACC), also named as ACAC, ACC1 and ACCA, belongs to the biotin containing enzyme family. It catalyzes the synthesis of malonyl-CoA, which is an intermediate substrate playing a pivotal role in the regulation of fatty acid metabolism and energy production. ACACA is involved in the biosynthesis of fatty acids, and malonyl-CoA produced is used as a building block to extend the chain length of fatty acids by fatty acid synthase(FAS)(PMID:19900410). It has 4 isoforms produced by alternative promoter usage with the molecular weight between 260 kDa and 270 kDa.
