Product Information

• Name: Acetyl coenzyme A sodium salt
• Synonyms: Acetyl CoA
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Acetyl-coenzyme A is an important intermediate in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. It is a cytosolic molecule that is synthesized from Acetyl-CoA and ATP. The Michaelis–Menten kinetics describe the relationship between the concentration of acetyl-coenzyme A and the rate of its consumption. Acetyl co-enzyme A is found in many different tissues, including plants, animals, and humans. It has an important role in regulating cellular growth and differentiation by activating various enzymes involved in metabolic pathways. Acetyl CoA can be acetylated to form acetyl CoA carboxylic acid (ACC) which then turns into malonyl CoA through a series of reactions. Malonyl CoA then enters the Krebs cycle as a key intermediate for generating energy from fatty acids.
