definition
Protein involved in the biosynthetic pathway leading from pantothenate to coenzyme A (CoA). CoA has two halves in phosphodiester linkage: a 3',5'-ADP residue, and 4-phosphopantetheine. The phosphopantetheine moiety is itself composed of three structural entities: a branched chain dihydroxy acid in amide linkage to a beta-alanyl residue, which is in turn linked to a cysteamide containing the reactive thiol. Coenzyme A functions as a carrier of acetyl and acyl groups and is essential for numerous biosynthetic, energy-yielding, and degradative metabolic pathways. Acetyl-CoA is the common cellular currency for acetyl transfers.
