4′-Phosphopantothenic acid

Description:
4′-Phosphopantothenic acid, also known as pantothenate or vitamin B5, is a water-soluble vitamin that plays a crucial role in various biochemical processes within the body. It is characterized by its structure, which includes a pantoic acid moiety linked to β-alanine, with a phosphate group attached at the 4′ position. This compound is essential for the synthesis of coenzyme A (CoA), which is vital for fatty acid metabolism and the synthesis of neurotransmitters. As a nutrient, it is involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, facilitating energy production. 4′-Phosphopantothenic acid is typically found in a variety of foods, including meats, whole grains, and legumes. It is generally recognized as safe, with no known toxicity at normal dietary levels. Deficiency in this vitamin can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, irritability, and impaired immune function. Its solubility in water allows for easy absorption in the gastrointestinal tract, making it readily available for physiological functions.
