Succinyl CoA
Based on 5 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Succinyl CoA (Succinyl-coenzyme A) is a pivotal intermediate metabolite in the tricarboxylic acid cycle and a key coenzyme A metabolite. Succinyl CoA is biosynthesized from α-ketoglutarate or propionyl-CoA. Succinyl CoA acts as a critical precursor and substrate for heme biosynthesis and gluconeogenesis. Succinyl CoA insufficiency caused by cobalamin deficiency is directly linked to growth retardation, impaired heme synthesis, tissue glycine accumulation and neurological abnormalities. Succinyl CoA can be used in research on metabolic, neurological, and hematological abnormalities (such as porphyria) caused by nutritional vitamin B12 deficiency (leading to a lack of Succinyl-Coenzyme A synthesis).

Biological Activity
Succinyl CoA acts as a substrate for rat liver δ-aminolevulinic acid synthase-1 with a Michaelis constant (Km) of 6-120 μmol/L[2].
Succinyl CoA does not bind to recombinant NLRX1 in an in vitro pull-down assay[2].

FLAG-TBK1 was overexpressed in HEK293T cells and immunoprecipitated using an anti-FLAG antibody. The immunoprecipitates were then treated with 2 mM Succinyl-Coenzyme A sodium (succinyl-CoA) for 15 min, followed by detection of TBK1 succinylation. The results showed that succinyl-coenzyme A sodium, a well-known precursor for protein succinylation, markedly induced succinylation of FLAG-tagged TBK1 in vitro.
