Methylmalonyl-Coenzyme A (sodium salt)

Methylmalonyl-CoA is a key metabolic intermediate in bacteria and eukaryotes, involved in carbon fixation and assimilation pathways. It is enzymatically converted to succinyl-CoA by methylmalonyl-CoA mutase, a vitamin B12-dependent reaction. Research applications include studying inborn errors of metabolism, vitamin B12 deficiency, and investigating bacterial propionate metabolism in both in vitro and in vivo models.
