Structure of Coenzyme A [PDF]

open access: possibleNature, 1953
CHEMICAL1 and enzymic2 studies from these two laboratories suggested that coenzyme A is best represented by formula (I) (cf. ref. 3). While the synthesis of various fragments of the molecule4 has lent considerable support to this structure, the enzymic and chemical evidence did not agree on one point.

Coenzyme A metabolism

American Journal of Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1985
The metabolism of coenzyme A and control of its synthesis are reviewed. Pantothenate kinase is an important rate-controlling enzyme in the synthetic pathway of all tissues studied and appears to catalyze the flux-generating reaction of the pathway in cardiac muscle. This enzyme is strongly inhibited by coenzyme A and all of its acyl esters.

Coenzymes I: Organic Coenzymes

2007
Most enzymatic reactions proceed with chemical changes that cannot be brought about by the side chains of amino acid residues. These enzymes function in cooperation with coenzymes and cofactors, which lend physicochemical potentialities not found in amino acids.

Coenzymes II: Metallic Coenzymes

2007
The original coenzymes were small organic molecules that activated enzymes and participated directly in catalyzing enzymatic reactions. Most of them were derived from vitamins and were known as biologically “activated” forms of vitamins such as niacin, riboflavin, thiamine, and pyridoxal.

Coenzymes and Vitamins

, 2012
Coenzymes are organic substances that participate like substrates in enzymatic reactions; however, unlike normal products the coenzymes are regenerated in subsequent reactions. Many, but not all coenzymes are vitamin derivatives. Vitamins are the dietary micronutrients that are required to produce these coenzymes.

Synthesis of coenzyme A

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 1961
Abstract An improved procedure for the chemical synthesis of coenzyme A by anhydride-anion exchange is described. A mixture of the 2′,5′- and 3′,5′-diphosphastes of adenosine is treated with diphenylphosphorochloridate to give P 1 -adenosine (2′3′-cyclic phosphate)-5′- P 2 -diphenylpyrophosphate quantitatively. This is then treated with pantethine

Coenzymes as coribozymes

Biochimie, 2002
Coenzymes are small organic molecules that supply a varied set of reactive groups to protein enzymes, thereby diversifying catalysis beyond the chemistries of amino acid sidechains. As RNA structures begin with a more limited chemical diversity than proteins, it seems likely that RNA enzymes would also use functional groups from other molecules to ...
