| acetoacetyl-coenzyme A | Intermediate in the oxidation of fatty acids and in the formation of ketone bodies; also formed from two molecules of acetyl-CoA; major role is condensation with acetyl-CoA to form the important beta-hydroxy-beta-methylglutaryl-CoA. Synonym: acetoacetyl-coenzyme A. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| acetyl-coenzyme A | <enzyme> Condensation product of coenzyme A and acetic acid, symbolised as CoAS~COCH3; intermediate in transfer of two-carbon fragment, notably in its entrance into the tricarboxylic acid cycle and in fatty acid synthesis. This coenzyme plays a huge role in intermediary metabolism, in which cells synthesise, break down or use nutrient molecules for energy production, growth, etc. Acetyl-coenzyme A synthase is found in bacteria and plants and catalyses the reaction in which acetate enters metabolic pathways and forms acetyl-coenzyme A. Synonym: acetyl-coenzyme A, active acetate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acetyl-coenzyme A-deacetylvindoline 4-O-acetyltransferase | <enzyme> Catalyses the final step in vindoline biosynthesis in catharanthus roseus Registry number: EC 2.3.1.107 Synonym: acadv-acetyltransferase, acetylcoenzyme a-deacetylvindoline-17-o-acetyltransferase (26 Jun 1999) |
| acetyl-coenzyme A-salutaridinol-7-O-acetyltransferase | <enzyme> Catalyses the transfer of acetyl from acetyl coenzyme a to the 7-oh group of salutaridinol which yields salutaridinol-7-o-acetate, an intermediate in morphine biosynthesis; from papaver somniferum plant cell cultures Registry number: EC 2.3.1.- Synonym: acetyl CoA-salutaridinol-7-o-acetyltransferase, salutaridinol-7-o-acetyltransferase (26 Jun 1999) |
| acyl-coenzyme A | RCH2COSCoA or RCH2CO~SCoA;condensation product of a carboxylic acid and coenzyme A, and metabolic intermediate of importance, notably in the oxidation and synthesis of fat. Synonym: acyl-coenzyme A. (05 Mar 2000) |
