Application

Lauroyl coenzyme A lithium salt has been used in the coenzyme A (CoA)-dependent acyltransferase assay to test the functionality of DRL1 protein. It is suitable for use as a standard to analyse the reaction product of lauric acid with firefly luciferase.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Coenzyme A functions as an acyl group carrier, acetyl-CoA. Dodecanoyl-Coenzyme A (C12-CoA), a long-chain (C-12) saturated fatty acyl-CoA, is used as an intermediate in lipid metabolism and is involved in lipid biosynthesis and fatty acid transport.. Lauroyl CoA is a substrate for FAM34A proteins and a product of firefly luciferase.

Negative chemical ionization (NCI) mass spectrometry was used to quantify the acyl-CoA intermediates present in human fibroblasts growing in media containing the long-chain fatty acid, palmitate. The acyl-CoA intermediates were detected as the N-acyl pentafluorobenzyl glycinates. In fibroblasts from normal

Recently we found that firefly luciferase is a bifunctional enzyme, catalyzing not only the luminescence reaction but also long-chain fatty acyl-CoA synthesis. Further, the gene product of CG6178 (CG6178), an ortholog of firefly luciferase in Drosophila melanogaster, was found to
