Details of the biosynthetic pathway of CoA synthesis from pantothenic acid
Pantothenic acid is a precursor to CoA via a five-step process. The biosynthesis requires pantothenic acid, cysteine, and four equivalents of ATP (see figure).
Pantothenic acid is phosphorylated to 4′-phosphopantothenate by the enzyme pantothenate kinase . This is the committed step in CoA biosynthesis and requires ATP.
A cysteine is added to 4′-phosphopantothenate by the enzyme phosphopantothenoylcysteine synthetase to form 4'-phospho-N-pantothenoylcysteine (PPC). This step is coupled with ATP hydrolysis .
PPC is decarboxylated to 4′-phosphopantetheine by phosphopantothenoylcysteine decarboxylase
4′-Phosphopantetheine is adenylated (or more properly, AMPylated ) to form dephospho-CoA by the enzyme phosphopantetheine adenylyl transferase
Finally, dephospho-CoA is phosphorylated to coenzyme A by the enzyme dephosphocoenzyme A kinase . This final step also requires ATP.<
