Application

Succinyl coenzyme A sodium salt has been used:
  • for the nonenzymatic succinylation of lysine in vitro,
  • as a substrate for adipic acid biosynthesis in recombinant E. coli
  • in isocitrate dehydrogenase (ICDH) treatment for the succinylation of proteins
  • as a substrate to study the specificity and kinetics of enzymes such as acetate:succinate CoA-transferase and 5-aminolevulinate synthase (ALA synthase)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Succinyl CoA is an intermediate in the citric acid cycle. It is formed by α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase by the decarboxylation of α-ketoglutarate. Succinyl CoA is also formed from propionyl CoA during the β-oxidation of odd-chain fatty acids. Succinyl CoA serves as a precursor in heme synthesis. It is also required for the oxidation of ketone bodies.

5-Aminolevulinate synthase is a homodimeric pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the first step of the heme biosynthetic pathway in animals, fungi, and the alpha-subclass of the photosynthetic purple bacteria. The reaction cycle involves condensation of glycine with succinyl-coenzyme A to

Pyridoxal-5'-phosphate (PLP) is an obligatory cofactor for the homodimeric mitochondrial enzyme 5-aminolevulinate synthase (ALAS), which controls metabolic flux into the porphyrin biosynthetic pathway in animals, fungi, and the α-subclass of proteobacteria. Recent work has provided an explanation for how this

Propionic acidemia (PA) is an inherited metabolic disease caused by low activity of propionyl coenzyme A (CoA) carboxylase (PCC), which metabolizes propionyl-CoA into methylmalonyl-CoA. Although many patients with PA have been identified by tandem mass spectrometry since the test was

Acetate:succinate CoA-transferases (ASCT) are acetate-producing enzymes in hydrogenosomes, anaerobically functioning mitochondria and in the aerobically functioning mitochondria of trypanosomatids. Although acetate is produced in the hydrogenosomes of a number of anaerobic microbial eukaryotes such as Trichomonas vaginalis, no acetate producing
