In enzymology a malonate CoA-transferase (EC 2.8.3.3) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionacetyl-CoA + malonate acetate + malonyl-CoAThus the two substrates of this enzyme are acetyl-CoA and malonate whereas its two products are acetate and malonyl-CoA.This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases specifically the CoA-transferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is acetyl-CoA:malonate CoA-transferase. This enzyme is also called malonate coenzyme A-transferase.
