Coenzyme A (CAT: R065215) is a molecule that plays a crucial role in several biochemical pathways in living organisms. It is composed of a nucleotide molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and a molecule called 3′-phosphoadenosine-5′-diphospho-4′-phosphopantetheine. Coenzyme A is involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, as well as in the synthesis of various molecules in the body. It also plays a key role in the citric acid cycle, a process that generates energy for cells. Deficiencies in Coenzyme A have been linked to certain metabolic disorders.
