Glutaryl Coenzyme A Lithium Salt(CAT: M004124) is a key biochemical compound involved in metabolic pathways, specifically in the breakdown of fatty acids and amino acids. As a coenzyme A (CoA) derivative, it plays a crucial role in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, facilitating the conversion of glutaryl groups into energy and intermediate molecules. The lithium salt form increases its stability and solubility, making it useful in biochemical assays and metabolic studies. This compound is often used in research focusing on mitochondrial function, metabolic disorders, and enzyme activity, particularly in the study of inborn errors of metabolism like glutaric aciduria. Its precise role in metabolic regulation makes it an important tool for exploring energy production and biochemical pathways.
