The Uses of C3:0

Propionyl Coenzyme A Lithium Salt is a nucleotide used in various biochemical assays such in the structural and enzymatic study of YbgC proteins.

What are the applications of Application

n-Propionyl coenzyme A lithium salt is the coenzyme A derivative of propionic acid

General Description

Propionyl-CoA is obtained as an end product of isoleucine, valine and methionine catabolism. It is an essential component for the methylaspartate cycle. Branched-chain amino acids and cholesterol also give rise to propionyl-CoA. Propionyl coenzyme A (CoA) is the coenzyme A derivative of propionic acid. Propionyl CoA is formed during the β-oxidation of odd-chain fatty acids.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Coenzyme A functions as an acyl group carrier, acetyl-CoA. Propionyl coenzyme A (Propionyl-CoA) may be used to characterize and study propionyl-coenzyme A carboxylase complexes found in bacteria. Propionyl-CoA may be used to study the specificity and kinetics of methylisocitrate lyase(s).
