Precursor in the biosynthesis of coenzyme A.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Along with coenzyme A (CoA, D-pantothenic acid is a precursor for acyl carrier protein. These are essential cofactors involved in fat, protein and carbohydrate metabolism. It also participates in the formation of acetylcholine neurotransmitter. D-pantothenic acid is considered as a source of nutrition and possesses immune function by mediating antibody formation. The production of cortisone is supported by D-pantothenic acid. It is essential for adrenal gland activity.
General description
Plants and microorganisms, such as Escherichia coli are the major sources of D-pantothenic acid. It is water soluble and quite stable to heating.
Packaging
