Hexanoyl coenzyme A (trilithium)

Hexanoyl coenzyme A trilithium is a hexanoyl-based medium-chain fatty acyl coenzyme A that is present in all organisms. Hexanoyl coenzyme A trilithium can be used as a precursor for cannabinoid biosynthesis and acts as a competitive inhibitor of medium-chain acyl coenzyme A dehydrogenase (MCAD) [1][2].
