Crotonyl-CoA
Crotonyl-CoA, a high-energy acyl donor, is an intermediate in the fermentation of butyric acid, and in the metabolism of lysine and tryptophan. Crotonyl-CoA is important in the metabolism of fatty acids and amino acids. Crotonyl-CoA acts as a substrate for p300’s histone crotonyltransferase activity, competing with acetyl-CoA for p300-mediated histone acylation reactions. Crotonyl-CoA regulates global and gene-specific histone crotonylation levels in cells, with cellular concentration changes altering histone crotonylation at regulatory elements of activated genes. Crotonyl-CoA serves as the substrate for crotonyl-CoA reductase/carboxylase (CCRC)-catalyzed NADPH-mediated reduction and carbon dioxide trapping to form unusual alkylmalonyl-CoA polyketide synthase extender units. Crotonyl-CoA can be used for the research of LPS-induced inflammatory response.

Human Endogenous Metabolite |
Crotonyl-CoA directly stimulates transcription in a cell-free system more potently than acetylation, with a 1.66-fold greater transcript production[1].
Crotonyl-CoA, when cellular concentrations are increased via 2.5 mM, 5 mM, 10 mM sodium crotonate treatment (12 h), led to dose-dependent increases in global H3K18Cr levels in HeLa S3 cells[1].
Crotonyl-CoA, when cellular concentrations are increased via 0 mM, 2.5 mM, 5 mM, 10 mM sodium crotonate pretreatment (6 h prior to 2 h LPS stimulation), enhanced H3K18Cr at de novo-activated gene promoters and increased their expression upon LPS stimulation in RAW 264.7 cells[1].
Crotonyl-CoA, when its cellular levels are reduced via ACSS2 knockdown (72 h prior to 2 h LPS stimulation), reduced H3K18Cr at de novo-activated gene promoters and attenuated their expression upon LPS stimulation in RAW 264.7 cells[1].
