Hexanoyl coenzyme A (trilithium), CAS 103476-19-3

Product Description: Hexanoyl coenzyme A trilithium is a hexanoyl-based medium-chain fatty acyl coenzyme A that is present in all organisms. Hexanoyl coenzyme A trilithium can be used as a precursor for cannabinoid biosynthesis and acts as a competitive inhibitor of medium-chain acyl coenzyme A dehydrogenase (MCAD)[1][2].

Applications: Metabolism-protein/nucleotide metabolism

Formula: C27H46Li3N7O17P3S
