malate synthase activity

Known as: acetyl-CoA:glyoxylate C-acetyltransferase (thioester-hydrolysing, carboxymethyl-forming), malic synthetase activity, glyoxylate transacetylase activity 
Catalysis of the reaction: acetyl-CoA + glyoxylate + H(2)O = (S)-malate + CoA + H(+). [EC:2.3.3.9, RHEA:18184]
