Acyl-CoA & Cofactors

Acyl-coenzyme A (acyl-CoA) compounds and enzyme cofactors supply activated substrates and redox carriers for assays. Acyl-CoA thioesters carry acyl groups through fatty acid metabolism and serve as substrates for acyltransferases, dehydrogenases and carboxylases. Crotonyl-CoA is a short-chain unsaturated thioester and the acyl donor for histone lysine crotonylation. Reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) and its phosphorylated form NADPH donate electrons to dehydrogenases and reductases. NADPH is offered in several salt forms, including NADPH tetrasodium salt. Sapropterin dihydrochloride is a synthetic form of tetrahydrobiopterin, the cofactor of aromatic amino acid hydroxylases and nitric oxide synthases. Coenzyme FO, a deazaflavin, is the precursor of coenzyme F420 and a light-harvesting chromophore in some DNA photolyases.

    NAD sodium

    Synonyms: β-DPN sodium; β-NAD sodium; β-Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide sodium

    NAD sodium is a crucial cofactor and homeostatic regulator that plays a significant role in cellular metabolism. It can be reduced to β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) during oxidative reactions, facilitating ATP production within mitochondria. This compound is particularly relevant in research studying macrophage M2 polarization, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, obesity, and glucose intolerance, making it a valuable reagent for investigations into metabolic syndrome and associated disorders.
