Product Information

• Name: Lauroyl coenzyme A potassium salt
• Synonyms: Lauryl-CoA potassium
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Lauroyl coenzyme A potassium salt is a potent inhibitor of fatty acid synthase. It has the ability to inhibit the enzyme activity of fatty acid synthase in vitro, which belongs to the class of irreversible inhibitors. Lauroyl coenzyme A potassium salt inhibits the synthesis of fatty acids by inhibiting the enzyme activity of fatty acid synthase. This inhibitor also reversibly inhibits other enzymes with a similar mechanism, such as acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase and phosphatidate phosphohydrolase. The reaction mechanism can be understood through titration calorimetry studies, demonstrating that lauroyl coenzyme A potassium salt binds to the active site of these enzymes and blocks access to substrates. The binding affinity is higher for wild type strains than for mutant strains, which may be due to differences in protein structure or other factors. Lauroyl coenzyme A potassium salt has been shown to have no effect on wild-type strains but inhibits polymer
