ethylmalonyl coenzyme a (sodium salt)

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.
