Application

Acetoacetyl coenzyme A (Acetoacetyl-CoA) may be used as a substrate for a number of enzymes including; acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase (EC 2.3.1) which produces acetyl-CoA in reverse condensation reaction and (3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (CoA) synthase (HMGCS)) which produces 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl (HMG)-CoA in the mevalonate pathway leading to terpenoid biosynthesis. Acetoacetyl-CoA is also a precursor of poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate polymers in microorganisms.
Substrate for acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase EC 2.3.1.9; Role in the biosynthesis of nonactin.

Bacterial enzymes of the menaquinone (Vitamin K2) pathway are potential drug targets because they lack human homologs. MenB, 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoyl-CoA synthase, the fourth enzyme in the biosynthetic pathway leading from chorismate to menaquinone, catalyzes the conversion of O-succinylbenzoyl-CoA (OSB-CoA) to 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoyl-CoA

Peroxisomes contain enzymes catalyzing a number of indispensable metabolic functions mainly related to lipid metabolism. The importance of peroxisomes in man is stressed by the existence of genetic disorders in which the biogenesis of the organelle is defective, leading to

Advanced (long-chain) fuels and chemicals are generated from short-chain metabolic intermediates through pathways that require carbon-chain elongation. The condensation reactions mediating this carbon-carbon bond formation can be catalysed by enzymes from the thiolase superfamily, including β-ketoacyl-acyl-carrier protein (ACP) synthases, polyketide

While conservation of ATP is often a desirable trait for microbial production of chemicals, we demonstrate that additional consumption of ATP may be beneficial to drive product formation in a nonnatural pathway. Although production of 1-butanol by the fermentative coenzyme
