Product Description

What is Crotonyl-CoA?

Crotonyl-CoA is a coenzyme A thioester of crotonic acid, occurring naturally as an intermediate in fatty-acid metabolism. As a lithium salt, it offers improved aqueous solubility and stability for use directly in enzyme assay buffers.

Uses of Crotonyl Coenzyme A Lithium Salt

This compound is used as a substrate in enzyme kinetics research, including studies of Plasmodium falciparum enoyl-ACP reductase and related enoyl-CoA reductases relevant to anti-malarial and anti-tubercular drug-target research, and more broadly in fatty-acid metabolism studies.
