| Targets |
Octanoyl coenzyme A lithium targets several enzymes involved in metabolism. It inhibits citrate synthase (CS), a key enzyme in the citric acid cycle, and glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH), an enzyme involved in amino acid metabolism, with IC50 values of 0.4-1.6 mM. It also serves as a substrate for ghrelin O-acyltransferase (GOAT), which uses octanoyl-CoA to acylate ghrelin, a peptide hormone involved in appetite regulation. As a fatty acyl-CoA, it is involved in fatty acid metabolism and lipid biosynthesis.

| Additional Infomation |
Caprylyl-CoA is a medium-chain fatty acyl-CoA, formed by the condensation of the sulfhydryl group of CoA with the carboxyl group of caprylic acid. It is a metabolite of E. coli and mice, functionally related to caprylic acid, and is the conjugate acid of caprylyl-CoA(4-). Caprylyl-CoA is a metabolite found or produced in E. coli (K12 strain, MG1655 strain). It has also been reported to exist in humans and common beans, with relevant data available. Caprylyl-CoA is a metabolite found or produced in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
