Description
Pantothenate kinase (EC 2.7.1.33, PanK; CoaA) is the first enzyme in the Coenzyme A biosynthetic pathway. It phosphorylates pantothenate (vitamin B5) to form 4'-phosphopantothenate at the expense of a molecule of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). It is the rate-limiting step in the biosynthesis of CoA.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Synonyms
pantothenate kinase (phosphorylating); pantothenic acid kinase; ATP:pantothenate 4'-phosphotransferase; D-pantothenate kinase
Reaction
ATP + (R)-pantothenate = ADP + (R)-4'-phosphopantothenate
