Coenzyme A trihydrate
Coenzyme A trihydrate
Coenzyme A (CoA) is an essential metabolic cofactor synthesised from cysteine, pantothenate, and ATP. It plays important roles in many metabolic pathways, including the tricarboxylic acid cycle, and the synthesis and oxidation of fatty acids. One of the main functions of CoA is the carrying and transfer of acyl groups. Acylated deriviates, for example acetyl-CoA, are critical intermediates in many metabolic reactions. CoA levels can be altered during starvation, and in conditions such as cancer, diabetes, and alcoholism.
- Soluble in water (50 mg/ml - clear, colourless to faint yellow solution)
It facilitates removal of lipid peroxides by increasing mobilisation of fatty acids, and promote repair of plasma membranes by activating phospholipid synthesis.
