Identification
Name:Propionyl-CoA
DescriptionPropionyl-CoA is an intermediate in the metabolism of propanoate. Propionyl-CoA is a substrate for acetyl-CoA synthetase, propionyl-CoA synthetase and 2-methylcitrate synthase. It is also involved in beta-alanine metabolism, Valine, leucine abd isoleucine degradation and C5-branched dibasic acid metabolism pathways.
