General description

08:0 Coenzyme A, also referred as octanoyl Coenzyme A, is a medium-chain acyl CoA. It is a coenzyme A derivative of octanoic acid.

Application

08:0 Coenzyme A has been used as a substrate in microsomal ghrelin octanoyltransferase assay.

Biochem/physiol Actions

08:0 Coenzyme A acts as an intermediate in mitochondrial fatty acid β-oxidation. It hinders the activity of citrate synthase (CS) and glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH). Higher levels of octanoyl –CoA, due to reduced β-oxidation of octanoyl-CoA by medium-chain acyl CoA dehydrogenase (MCADH), is observed in patients with MCADH deficiency (MCD).

Medium-chain acyl-coenzyme A (CoA) dehydrogenase (MCADH; EC 1.3.99.3) deficiency (MCD) is an inborn error of beta-oxidation. We measured 3H2O formed by the dehydrogenation of [2,3-3H]acyl-CoAs in a 3H-release assay. Short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (SCADH; EC 1.3.99.2), MCADH, and isovaleryl-CoA dehydrogenase (IVDH;

The oxidation of fatty acids in mitochondria plays an important role in energy metabolism and genetic disorders of this pathway may cause metabolic diseases. Enzyme deficiencies can block the metabolism at defined reactions in the mitochondrion and lead to accumulation

We investigated the hypothesis that one mechanism underlying fatty acid toxicity is the selective inhibition of rate-limiting and/or regulated tricarboxylic acid cycle and related enzymes by fatty acyl coenzyme A (CoA) derivatives by examining the effects of several fatty acyl

Ghrelin-O-Acyltransferase (GOAT) is an 11-transmembrane integral membrane protein that octanoylates the metabolism-regulating peptide hormone ghrelin at Ser3 and may represent an attractive target for the treatment of type II diabetes and the metabolic syndrome. Protein octanoylation is unique to ghrelin
