Biochem/physiol Actions

Coenzyme A (CoA) is an essential cofactor in living organisms and plays a crucial role in carboxylic acid metabolism, which includes short and long-chain fatty acids. It is a derivative of pantothenic acid. CoA participates in the transport of the acyl group and activates carbonyl groups in the tricarboxylic acid cycle and fatty acid metabolism. Over a hundred different reactions utilize CoA as it is the source of 4′-phosphopantetheine, which acts as a prosthetic group of carrier proteins of polyketide, fatty acid, and non-ribosomal peptide synthases
