Summary
OXCT1 (3-oxoacid CoA-transferase 1, HGNC:8527) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 5p13.1, encoding Succinyl-CoA:3-ketoacid coenzyme A transferase 1, mitochondrial (P55809). Key enzyme for ketone body catabolism.
This gene encodes a member of the 3-oxoacid CoA-transferase gene family. The encoded protein is a homodimeric mitochondrial matrix enzyme that plays a central role in extrahepatic ketone body catabolism by catalyzing the reversible transfer of coenzyme A from succinyl-CoA to acetoacetate. Mutations in this gene are associated with succinyl CoA:3-oxoacid CoA transferase deficiency.

Function. Key enzyme for ketone body catabolism. Catalyzes the first, rate-limiting step of ketone body utilization in extrahepatic tissues, by transferring coenzyme A (CoA) from a donor thiolester species (succinyl-CoA) to an acceptor carboxylate (acetoacetate), and produces acetoacetyl-CoA. Acetoacetyl-CoA is further metabolized by acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase into two acetyl-CoA molecules which enter the citric acid cycle for energy production. Forms a dimeric enzyme where both of the subunits are able to form enzyme-CoA thiolester intermediates, but only one subunit is competent to transfer the CoA moiety to the acceptor carboxylate (3-oxo acid) and produce a new acyl-CoA. Formation of the enzyme-CoA intermediate proceeds via an unstable anhydride species formed between the carboxylate groups of the enzyme and substrate.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer. Only one subunit is competent to transfer the CoA moiety to the acceptor carboxylate (3-oxo acid).
Subcellular location. Mitochondrion.
Tissue specificity. Abundant in heart, followed in order by brain, kidney, skeletal muscle, and lung, whereas in liver it is undetectable. Expressed (at protein level) in all tissues (except in liver), most abundant in myocardium, then brain, kidney, adrenal glands, skeletal muscle and lung; also detectable in leukocytes and fibroblasts.
Disease relevance. Succinyl-CoA:3-oxoacid CoA transferase deficiency (SCOTD) [MIM:245050] A disorder of ketone body metabolism, characterized by episodic ketoacidosis. Patients are usually asymptomatic between episodes. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Pathway. Ketone metabolism; succinyl-CoA degradation; acetoacetyl-CoA from succinyl-CoA: step 1/1.
Similarity. Belongs to the 3-oxoacid CoA-transferase family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 44 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
