Description and Uses
3''-Dephosphocoenzyme A is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of coenzyme A (CoA; Item Nos. 16147 | 21499 | 21722) from pantothenic acid (vitamin B5; ). It is phosphorylated by CoA synthase in humans to form CoA. 3''-Dephosphocoenzyme A can be used as a transcription initiator in the synthesis of CoA-RNA by in vitro transcription.
Dephosphocoenzyme A is the direct precursor of coenzyme A. It is used for the synthesis of coenzyme A by bifunctional CoA Synthase (CoASy, 4′-phosphopantetheine adenylyltransferase/dephospho-CoA kinase) which performs the transfer of the γ-phosphate of ATP to dephosphocoenzyme A.
