Metabolite Identification
Common Name2-Dehydropantolactone
Description2-Dehydropantolactone is converted to (R)-pantolactone in the phosphopantothenate biosynthesis pathway. The product of this pathway, D-4'-phosphopantothenate, is the universal precursor for the synthesis of the 4'-phosphopantetheine moiety of coenzyme A and acyl carrier protein. Only plants and microorganisms can synthesize pantothenate de novo. [Biocyc PWY-3961]
