Succinyl-Coenzyme A sodium salt

Succinyl-coenzyme A (succinyl-CoA) is an intermediate in the citric acid cycle.[1] It is converted to succinate, which is a metabolic intermediate with various biological activities. Succinyl-CoA is required, with glycine, to form δ-aminolevulinic acid in the first step of porphyrin and heme synthesis.[2] Succinyl-CoA deficiency, caused by vitamin B12 deficiency can disrupt heme and energy production, leading to neuromotor dysfunction.[3]
