2-hydroxyoctadecanoyl-coenzyme A

lipidomics

ChEBI: A hydroxy fatty-acyl-CoA that results from the formal condensation of the thiol group of coenzyme A with the carboxy group of 2-hydroxystearic acid.

CoA plays important roles in many metabolic pathways, including the tricarboxylic acid cycle, and the synthesis and oxidation of fatty acids. Acylated derivatives, for example Acetyl-CoA, are critical intermediates in many metabolic reactions ADD>, particularly fatty acid and carbohydrate metabolism.
