General description

16:0 Coenzyme A, also called as palmitoyl coenzyme A, is a most abundant acyl-CoA and the product of the first round of β-oxidation. It serves as a substrate for palmitoylation, a process in which a protein acyltransferase transfers the palmitoyl group to a free thiol on target proteins.

Application

16:0 Coenzyme A has been used as a:
  • standard in mass spectrometry for qualitative analysis of palmitoyl acyl-CoA in mycobacterium cells
  • constituent of the binding buffer in protein in vitro binding assay
  • substrate in serine palmitoyltransferase assay

Palmitoylation enhances membrane association and plays a role in the subcellular trafficking and signaling function of proteins. Unlike other forms of protein lipidation, such as prenylation and myristoylation, palmitoylation is reversible and can therefore play a regulatory role. Enzyme activities

HSAN1 is an inherited neuropathy found to be associated with several missense mutations in the SPTLC1 subunit of serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT). SPT catalyzes the condensation of serine and palmitoyl-CoA, the initial step in the de novo synthesis of sphingolipids. Here

Autophagy is a membrane trafficking pathway that sequesters proteins and organelles into autophagosomes. The selectivity of this pathway is determined by autophagy receptors, such as the Pichia pastoris autophagy-related protein 30 (Atg30), which controls the selective autophagy of peroxisomes (pexophagy)
