Product Description
Octanoyl coenzyme A lithium is an analogue of fatty acid acyl coenzyme A. Octanoyl coenzyme A lithium has an inhibitory activity against citrate synthase and glutamate dehydrogenase, with IC50 of 0.4-1.6 mM.
Octanoyl coenzyme A lithium is a fatty acyl coenzyme A derivative and a medium-chain fatty acyl-CoA involved in fatty acid metabolism, energy production, and lipid biosynthesis. It has a molecular weight of 929.6 g/mol. The compound functions as an acyl group carrier and is a donor molecule for the acylation (octanylation) of ghrelin and other peptides by ghrelin O-acyltransferase (GOAT). Octanoyl coenzyme A lithium inhibits citrate synthase (CS) and glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) with IC50 values of 0.4-1.6 mM. It is used in research to study fatty acid metabolism and the role of acyl-CoA in various biological processes.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
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.
ln Vitro
In vitro, Octanoyl coenzyme A lithium is used as a substrate or inhibitor in enzyme assays. It inhibits citrate synthase (CS) and glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) with IC50 values of 0.4-1.6 mM. It is also used as a substrate for ghrelin O-acyltransferase (GOAT) to study the acylation of ghrelin. The compound is used in research to investigate fatty acid metabolism, energy production, and lipid biosynthesis. Its activity as an inhibitor and substrate makes it a valuable tool for studying metabolic pathways.
ln Vivo
In vivo, Octanoyl coenzyme A lithium is involved in fatty acid metabolism and is a key intermediate in the synthesis and degradation of fatty acids. It plays a role in the octanoylation of ghrelin, which is essential for its biological activity in appetite regulation. The compound's in vivo role is primarily as a metabolic intermediate rather than as a therapeutic agent. It is used in research to study the role of acyl-CoA in various physiological and pathological processes.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme assays for Octanoyl coenzyme A lithium typically involve measuring its inhibitory activity against enzymes such as citrate synthase (CS) or glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH). The enzyme is incubated with its substrate and cofactors in a buffer solution. Varying concentrations of the compound are added to the reaction mixture, and the enzyme activity is measured spectrophotometrically or by using a coupled enzyme assay. The IC50 value is calculated from the dose-response curve. The compound can also be used as a substrate in assays for ghrelin O-acyltransferase (GOAT).
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays using Octanoyl coenzyme A lithium are performed to study its effects on cellular metabolism. Cells are treated with the compound, and its effects on fatty acid oxidation, lipid synthesis, and energy production are measured. The compound's ability to modulate the activity of enzymes like citrate synthase and glutamate dehydrogenase can be assessed in cell lysates. The compound's effects on ghrelin acylation can be studied in cells that express GOAT.
Animal Protocol
Specific in vivo animal experiment protocols for Octanoyl coenzyme A lithium are not detailed in the available literature. As a metabolic intermediate, it is not typically administered as a drug. However, its role in ghrelin acylation suggests it could be studied in animal models of appetite regulation or metabolism. For example, the effects of modulating octanoyl-CoA levels on ghrelin activity and feeding behavior could be investigated.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Octanoyl coenzyme A lithium has a molecular weight of 929.6 g/mol. It is a fatty acyl coenzyme A derivative and a medium-chain fatty acyl-CoA. The compound is soluble in water and is typically stored at -20°C. Its pharmacokinetic properties have not been extensively characterized, as it is a naturally occurring metabolite rather than a drug. However, its stability and solubility are important considerations for its use in biochemical assays.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Specific toxicological data for Octanoyl coenzyme A lithium are not provided in the available sources. As a naturally occurring metabolite, it is likely to have a low toxicity profile. However, as a research chemical, it is intended for laboratory use only and is not for human consumption. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed when handling this compound, including the use of appropriate personal protective equipment.
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.
