Background: Coenzyme A (CoA) is composed of units derived from cysteine, pantothenic acid, and ATP. It plays important roles in the synthesis and oxidation of fatty acids, pyruvate oxidation in the citric acid cycle and many other biological processes. One of the main functions of CoA is the carrying and transfer of acyl groups. One of the most important acyl groups transferred is the acetate group, in which case the molecule is called acetyl-CoA. The acetyl group eventually finds itself incorporated into a variety of molecules such as cholesterol, acetylcholine, melatonin, heme and the TCA cycle intermediates. MyBioSource has developed an easy, accurate assay to measure the CoA level in variety biological samples. In the assay, free CoA is specifically utilized to generate products which react with OxiRed Probe to generate color (lambda = 570 nm) and fluorescence (Ex=535/Em=587 nm). The assay can detect 0.1 to 10 nmol of CoA (2.5-250 uM concentration range) in a variety of samples.
Summary: Detection method- Absorbance (570 nm) or Fluorescence (Ex/Em 535/587 nm)
Species reactivity- Mammalian
Applications- The assay can detect 0.1 to 10 nmol of CoA (2.5-250 uM concentration range) in a variety of samples.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
Key enzyme for ketone body catabolism. Transfers the CoA moiety from succinate to acetoacetate. Formation of the enzyme-CoA intermediate proceeds via an unstable anhydride species formed between the carboxylate groups of the enzyme and substrate.

Product Notes
The Coenzyme A (CoA) cob_03724 (Catalog #AAA841461) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Coenzyme A (CoA), Assay Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
