Coenzyme A is a central cofactor in cellular metabolism, playing a critical role in numerous biochemical processes. It is involved in the synthesis and oxidation of fatty acids, the Krebs cycle, and the metabolism of carbohydrates and proteins. CoA's core function is to form thioester bonds with acyl groups, thus producing acyl-CoA compounds that are central to various metabolic pathways. CoA dysregulation is implicated in neurodegenerative diseases like PKAN, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s as well as a number of metabolic disorders. AkrivisBio’s Coenzyme A Assay is a simple, sensitive means of quantitating Coenzyme A with a sensitivity below 0.1 nanomole of Coenzyme A.
