Template:Infobox enzyme In enzymology, a mycocerosate synthase (EC 2.3.1.111) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

long-chain acyl-[mycocerosate synthase] + n methylmalonyl-CoA + 2n NADPH + 2n H+ multi-methyl-branched acyl-[mycocerosate synthase] + n CoA + n CO2 + 2n NADP+

The 4 substrates of this enzyme are acyl-CoA, methylmalonyl-CoA, NADPH, and H+, whereas its 4 products are multi-methyl-branched acyl-[mycocerosate synthase], CoA, CO2, and NADP+.

This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those acyltransferases transferring groups other than aminoacyl groups. The systematic name of this enzyme class is acyl-CoA:methylmalonyl-CoA C-acyltransferase (decarboxylating, oxoacyl- and enoyl-reducing). This enzyme is also called mycocerosic acid synthase.
