Myristoyl Coenzyme A, Sodium salt

Myristoyl coenzyme A (Myristoyl-CoA) is a conjugate of coenzyme A and myristate, acting as a substrate in the process of protein myristoylation, where the myristoyl group is transferred to the glycine residue at the protein's amino-terminal by N-myristoyl transferase. This modification plays a crucial role in cellular processes and is commonly used in research related to cyclic nucleotides. Myristoyl-CoA is highlighted in studies involving bioactive small molecules and other research areas (Utsumi et al., 2021; Wright et al., 2017).
