Description

Anabolic cell processes, intermediate metabolism. Acetyl-CoA is an essential cofactor and carrier of acyl groups in enzymatic acetyl transfer reactions. It is formed either by the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate in mitochondria, by the oxidation of long-chain fatty acids or by the oxidative breakdown of certain amino acids. It is an important precursor to lipid biosynthesis and the source of all fatty acid carbons. It is a positive regulator of pyruvate carboxylase. It is also a precursor to the neurotransmitter acetylcholine.
