Biotin-independent malonate decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.88, malonate decarboxylase (without biotin), malonate decarboxylase, MDC) is an enzyme with systematic name malonate carboxy-lyase (biotin-independent). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

malonate + H+ acetate + CO2

Two types of malonate decarboxylase are currently known, both of which form multienzyme complexes.
