Proteins (1)
Protein | Synonyms | Taxonomy |
ATP-citrate synthase | EC 2.3.3.8; ATP-citrate (pro-S-)-lyase; ACL; Citrate cleavage enzyme | Homo sapiens (human) |
Compounds (7)
Compound | Description |
serum p-component | close relation to C reactive protein; may be ovosomucoid |
Orthophosphate | |
adenosine diphosphate | Adenosine 5'-(trihydrogen diphosphate). An adenine nucleotide containing two phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety at the 5'-position. |
Oxaloacetate | An anionic form of oxaloacetic acid. |
adenosine triphosphate | An adenine nucleotide containing three phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety. In addition to its crucial roles in metabolism adenosine triphosphate is a neurotransmitter. |
Coenzyme A | |
Acetyl Coenzyme A | Acetyl CoA participates in the biosynthesis of fatty acids and sterols, in the oxidation of fatty acids and in the metabolism of many amino acids. It also acts as a biological acetylating agent. |
