Dephospho-CoA, also known as Dephospho-coa, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as purine ribonucleoside diphosphates. These are purine ribobucleotides with diphosphate group linked to the ribose moiety. Thus, dephospho-CoA is considered to be a fatty ester lipid molecule. Dephospho-CoA is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Dephospho-CoA exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. In cattle, dephospho-CoA is involved in the metabolic pathway called pantothenate and CoA biosynthesis pathway.
