Acetyl-CoA
Description
acetyl-CoA, C23H38N7O17P3S, is a central piece in metabolism. It can be synthetized in many different ways: (i) from piruvate, by piruvate dehydrogenase, which also forms NADH. (ii) from fatty acids beta-oxidation, which releases one acetyl-CoA each round. (iii) catabolism of some aminoacids as leucine, lysine, phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan.
