Application

Coenzyme A functions as an acyl group carrier, acetyl-CoA. Oleoyl coenzyme A (Oleoyl-CoA) may be used to study the specificity and kinetics of enzymes such as acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase 1 (ACAT1) involved in long chain fatty acid cholesterol esterification.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Oleoyl-CoA is an important substrate, that is essential for the biosynthesis of 1-Alkyl-2,3-diacylglycerol (ADG) and very long chain monounsaturated fatty acids of harderian gland (HG) 1-alkyl-2,3-diacylglycerol.

Acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase 1 (ACAT1) is a membrane-bound enzyme utilizing long-chain fatty acyl-coenzyme A and cholesterol to form cholesteryl esters and coenzyme A. Previously, we had expressed tagged human ACAT1 (hACAT1) in CHO cells and purified it to homogeneity; however
Oleoyl-CoA is the major de novo product of stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 gene isoform and substrate for the biosynthesis of the Harderian gland 1-alkyl-2, 3-diacylglycerol
