'''Pantothenate kinase''' (PanK) phosphorylates pantothenate (vitamin B5) (PAU) to form 4’-phosphopantothenate (PPT) using ATP as phosphate source. This is the first step in coenzyme A biosynthesis<ref>. PanK is regulated by feedback inhibition by CoA and its thioesters.PMID:9890959</ref>.<br /> | '''Pantothenate kinase''' (PanK) phosphorylates pantothenate (vitamin B5) (PAU) to form 4’-phosphopantothenate (PPT) using ATP as phosphate source.
