Coenzyme A Trilithium Salt Dihydrate, MP Biomedicals™

Description

Facilitates removal of lipid peroxides and promotes repair of plasma membranes. Coenzyme A Trilithium Salt Dihydrate, MP Biomedicals is an essential cofactor in enzymatic acetyl transfer reactions. It increases mobilization of fatty acids and activates ph

The principal biologically active forms of pantothenic acid are coenzyme A (CoA) and acyl carrier protein (ACP). In CoA, the business center of the molecule is the pantothenic acid metabolite 4'-phosphopantetheine.

• Coenzyme A is comprised of 4'-phosphopantetheine linked by an anhydride bond to the nucloetide adenosine 5'-monophosphate
• 4'-Phosphopantetheine itself is comprised of pantothenic acid linked at one end, via an amide bond, to beta-mercaptoethylamine, derived from L-cysteine, and at the other end to a phosphate group
• The sulfhydryl group of 4'-phosphopantetheine, which is the business end of the coenzyme, forms thioesters with acyl groups producing acyl-CoA derivatives, including acetyl-CoA
