| acetate-CoA ligase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the formation of CoA derivatives from ATP, acetate, and CoA to form AMP, pyrophosphate, and acetyl CoA. It acts also on propionates and acrylates. Chemical name: Acetate:CoA ligase (AMP-forming) Registry number: EC 6.2.1.1 (12 Dec 1998) |
| acetate-succinate CoA-transferase | <enzyme> Tritichomonas and trichomonas enzyme converts acetyl-CoA and succinate to acetate and succinyl-CoA Registry number: EC 2.8.3.- Synonym: acetate-succinate coenzyme a-transferase (26 Jun 1999) |
| acetoacetyl-CoA | 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) |
| acetoacetyl-CoA reductase | An oxidoreductase catalyzing interconversion of a 3-oxoacyl-CoA and NADPH, and the corresponding d-3-hydroxyacyl-CoA, and NADP+. A step in fatty acid synthesis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acetoacetyl-CoA synthetase | <enzyme> Catalyses the conversion of acetoacetate and CoA in the presence of ATP to yield AMP, pyrophosphate and acetoacetyl-CoA; the latter is the first intermediate in cholesterogenesis; also acts more slowly on l-3-hydroxybutanoate Registry number: EC 6.2.1.16 Synonym: acetoacetyl-CoA ligase, acetoacetate-CoA ligase, acetoacetyl-coenzyme a synthetase (26 Jun 1999) |
| acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase | An acetyltransferase forming acetoacetyl-CoA from two molecules of acetyl-CoA, releasing one CoA. A key step in ketogenesis and sterol synthesis. Synonym: acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase, acetyl-CoA thiolase, thiolase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acetyl-CoA | <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-CoA-1-alkyl-2-lyso-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine acetyltransferase | <enzyme> Transfers acetate from acetyl CoA to the sn-2-position of 1-alkyl-2-lyso-glycerophosphocholine, forming the substrate for 1-alkylglycerophosphocholine acetyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.67) Registry number: EC 2.3.1.- Synonym: acopc acetyltransferase, 1-alkyl-2-lyso-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine-acetyl CoA acetyltransferase, alkyllyso-gp-acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase, acetyl-coenzyme a-1-alkyl-2-lyso-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine acetyltransferase (26 Jun 1999) |
| acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase | An acetyltransferase forming acetoacetyl-CoA from two molecules of acetyl-CoA, releasing one CoA. A key step in ketogenesis and sterol synthesis. Synonym: acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase, acetyl-CoA thiolase, thiolase. (05 Mar 2000) |
