HNPHARRBSFXZAL-UHFFFAOYSA-N

Application

DL-β-Hydroxybutyryl coenzyme A lithium salt has been used:

  • as a substrate in the HSD17B4 protein enzymatic assay
  • as a substrate to determine the specificity and kinetics of Hc-DHS-28 and its mutation proteins
  • as a component of the reaction buffer in S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine hydrolase (AHCY) in vitro acylation

Biochem/physiol Actions

3-Hydroxybutyryl coenzyme A (HBCoA) is converted to bacterial polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHB) by polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) synthases. 3-Hydroxybutyryl coenzyme A is a substrate used to measure the specificity and kinetics of β-hydroxyacyl CoA dehydrogenase.

The synthesis of bacterial polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) is very much dependent on the expression and activity of a key enzyme, PHA synthase (PhaC). Many efforts are being pursued to enhance the activity and broaden the substrate specificity of PhaC. Here, we
