    Summary
    Predicted to enable [acyl-carrier-protein] S-malonyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in fatty acid biosynthetic process. Predicted to be active in mitochondrion. Is expressed in adult head. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in optic atrophy. Orthologous to human MCAT (malonyl-CoA-acyl carrier protein transacylase).
