Definition
3-oxocholest-4-en-26-oyl-coa, also known as delta(4)-dafachronoyl-coenzyme a(4-), is a member of the class of compounds known as 2,3,4-saturated fatty acyl coas. 2,3,4-saturated fatty acyl coas are acyl-CoAs carrying a 2,3,4-saturated fatty acyl chain. 3-oxocholest-4-en-26-oyl-coa is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely strong acidic compound (based on its pKa). 3-oxocholest-4-en-26-oyl-coa can be found in a number of food items such as pulses, cocoa bean, lovage, and chinese water chestnut, which makes 3-oxocholest-4-en-26-oyl-coa a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
