Metabolite Identification
Common NameLauroyl-CoA
DescriptionLauroyl-CoA, also known as dodecanoyl-CoA or C12:0-CoA, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 2,3,4-saturated fatty acyl coas. These are acyl-CoAs carrying a 2,3,4-saturated fatty acyl chain. Thus, lauroyl-CoA is considered to be a fatty ester lipid molecule. Lauroyl-CoA is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Lauroyl-CoA exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Lauroyl-CoA and L-carnitine can be biosynthesized from dodecanoic acid and coenzyme A; which is mediated by the enzyme carnitine O-palmitoyltransferase 2, mitochondrial. In cattle, lauroyl-CoA is involved in the metabolic pathway called the Beta oxidation OF very long chain fatty acids pathway.

Reactions

General function:
Lipid transport and metabolism
Specific function:
Catalyzes the activation of fatty acids by CoA to produce an acyl-CoA, the first step in fatty acid metabolism (PubMed:11382754, PubMed:10561077). Capable of activating medium-chain fatty acids (e.g. butyric (C4) to decanoic (C10) acids), and certain carboxylate-containing xenobiotics, e.g. benzoate (PubMed:10561077, PubMed:11382754). Also catalyzes the activation of lipoate to lipoyl-nucleoside monophosphate (PubMed:11382754). Activates lipoate with GTP at a 1000-fold higher rate than with ATP and activates both (R)- and (S)-lipoate to the respective lipoyl-GMP, with a preference for (R)-lipoate (PubMed:11382754).

General function:
Not Available
Specific function:
Catalyzes the terminal and only committed step in triacylglycerol synthesis by using diacylglycerol and fatty acyl CoA as substrates. In contrast to DGAT2 it is not essential for survival. May be involved in VLDL (very low density lipoprotein) assembly. Functions as the major acyl-CoA retinol acyltransferase (ARAT) in the skin, where it acts to maintain retinoid homeostasis and prevent retinoid toxicity leading to skin and hair disorders. In liver, plays a role in esterifying exogenous fatty acids to glycerol.
