    Product Description

    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 (Item No. 18425) deficiency can disrupt heme and energy production, leading to neuromotor dysfunction.3

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
