ACSF3
Catalyzes the initial reaction in intramitochondrial fatty acid synthesis, by activating malonate and methylmalonate, but not acetate, into their respective CoA thioester. May have some preference toward very-long-chain substrates. Defects in ACSF3 are the cause of combined malonic and methylmalonic aciduria (CMAMMA). A metabolic disease characterized by malonic and methylmalonic aciduria, with urinary excretion of much larger amounts of methylmalonic acid than malonic acid, in the presence of normal malonyl-CoA decarboxylase activity. Clinical features include coma, ketoacidosis, hypoglycemia, failure to thrive, microcephaly, dystonia, axial hypotonia and/or developmental delay, and neurologic manifestations including seizures, psychiatric disease and/or cognitive decline. Belongs to the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
