Comments [?]

Function Component of the acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase (ACC) complex. First, biotin carboxylase catalyzes the carboxylation of biotin on its carrier protein (BCCP) and then the CO(2) group is transferred by the carboxyltransferase to acetyl-CoA to form malonyl-CoA.
Catalytic activity RHEA:54728: acetyl-CoA + N(6)-carboxybiotinyl-L-lysyl-[protein] = malonyl-CoA + N(6)-biotinyl-L-lysyl-[protein]
EC 2.1.3.15
Pathway Lipid metabolism; malonyl-CoA biosynthesis; malonyl-CoA from acetyl-CoA: step 1/1.
Subunit Acetyl-CoA carboxylase is a heterohexamer composed of biotin carboxyl carrier protein (AccB), biotin carboxylase (AccC) and two subunits each of ACCase subunit alpha (AccA) and ACCase subunit beta (AccD).

Fusion Nter: MF_01395 (accD); Cter: None
Comments A few Bacillota encode a fusion between accD and accA (CLOTE, EUBR3, FRAAA, FRACC, FRASN, NATTJ) as do a few Actinomycetota (SACEN, SALAI and SALTO). Most plants have 2 forms, the so-called prokaryotic form in their plastids and the eukaryotic form in the cytoplasm. The prokaryotic form is longer than the one found in bacteria. The grass family (Poaceae) have only the eukaryotic form in both locations. The eukaryotic form consists of a single large protein in which are fused all 4 subunits that are separate in prokaryotes.
