NUDT7

NUDT7

A gene on chromosome 16q23.1 that encodes coenzyme A diphosphatase, which cleaves CoA, CoA esters and oxidised CoA, yielding 3',5'-ADP and a 4'-phosphopantetheine derivative. NUDT7 may be required to eliminate oxidised CoA from peroxisomes, or regulate CoA and acyl-CoA levels in peroxisomes in response to metabolic demand.
