Beta-ketodecanoyl-(acyl-carrier-protein) synthase (EC 2.3.1.207) is an enzyme with systematic name octanoyl-CoA:malonyl-(acyl-carrier protein) C-heptanoylltransferase (decarboxylating, CoA-forming). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

octanoyl-CoA + malonyl-[acyl-carrier protein] ⇌ 3-oxodecanoyl-[acyl-carrier protein] + CoA + CO2

This enzyme is purified from the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1.
