A third autotrophic pathway (Wood–Ljungdahl pathway) uses a reductive acetyl-CoA pathway and is only found in strictly anaerobic bacteria and archaea. A fourth pathway uses the 3 ...

The histone proteins of complex cells are named H2A, H2B, H3 and H4. They are assembled into groups of eight, around which a ...

Using their expertise in tumor immunity and metabolism, the Thaxton Lab, led by the Katie Hurst, MPH, and 4th year graduate student Ellie Hunt, found that a metabolic enzyme called Acetyl-CoA ...

Lately, Acetyl L-Carnitine, a known supplement, has attracted increasing attention. This supplement is a byproduct of L-Carnitine, an amino acid naturally present in the human body. Acetyl L ...

The researchers found that ATP-citrate lyase (ACLY), an enzyme involved in converting citrate to acetyl-CoA, plays a critical ...

The Brain's Cholesterol Factory The process of brain cholesterol production starts with glucose, which can be converted into acetyl-CoA, the main building block for fatty acids. Glucose undergoes ...

The metabolic enzyme ACSS2 generates acetyl-CoA, a molecule essential for forming drug-craving memories. By disrupting this process, EpiVario aims to deliver an acute therapeutic intervention that ...
