ethylmalonyl coenzyme a

Ethylmalonyl coenzyme A (CoA) is a key intermediate in the ethylmalonyl-CoA pathway for carbon metabolism in certain bacteria, such asM. extorquens, which uses this pathway when grown on ethylamine.1,2It is produced from crotonyl-CoA by crotonyl-CoA reductase/carboxylase and modified by ethylmalonyl-CoA mutase to make methylsuccinyl-CoA. 1.Good, N.M., Martinez-Gomez, N.C., Beck, D.A.C., et al.Ethylmalonyl coenzyme A mutase operates as a metabolic control point in Methylobacterium extorquens AM1J.

Ethylmalonyl-CoA (Ethylmalonyl coenzyme A) is a derivative of coenzyme A.

Methylmalonyl coenzyme A (methylmalonyl-CoA) is an intermediate in multiple metabolic pathways in bacteria and eukaryotes.1,2,3It is an intermediate in carbon assimilation in certain bacteria and carbon fixation in plants.1,2Methylmalonyl-CoA is converted to succinyl-CoA by methylmalonyl-CoA mutase with vitamin B12as a coenzyme.3A deficiency in vitamin B12leads to a build-up of methylmalonyl-CoA.4 1.Anthony, C.How half a century of research was required to understand bacterial growth on C1 and C2 compounds; the story of the serine cycle and the ethylmalonyl-CoA pathwaySci.

(S)-Ethylmalonyl-CoA ((S)-Ethylmalonyl-coenzyme A) is a type of acyl-CoA.

Methylmalonyl coenzyme A (Methylmalonyl-CoA) is a metabolic product derived from the breakdown of odd-chain fatty acids, cholesterol, and certain amino acids, such as valine, isoleucine, methionine, and threonine. It is enzymatically converted into succinyl-CoA through the action of methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (MCM) utilizing coenzyme vitamin B12.
