Component
(S)-3-Hydroxybutyryl-CoA
Independent small molecule record; interpretation is limited by each linked claim and its study context.
2 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.
How nutrients influence it
Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.
Other things that act on it
Enzymes, hormones, genes, and other components with a recorded effect. These are not nutrients, so they do not count toward the arrows above. Each finding names the chapter that recorded it.
How nutrients reach it in more than one step
Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What it does
Every recorded relationship this component is part of, grouped by its role. Plain wording comes first; the technical statement follows.
What it acts on
The human HADH homodimer reversibly oxidizes (S)-3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA to acetoacetyl-CoA while reducing NAD+ to NADH.
Experimental context and source evidence
- experimental_model
- Purified recombinant human HADH; substrate/product-cofactor crystal complexes
- limitations
- HADH is distinct from HADHA and HSD17B10. This shared reversible reaction supports the downstream route but does not quantify lysine-specific flux in people.
- organism
- Homo sapiens
- plain_language
- The four-carbon hydroxy intermediate is oxidized to a keto intermediate.

What acts on it
Short-chain enoyl-CoA hydratase ECHS1 hydrates trans-crotonyl-CoA to (S)-3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA.
Experimental context and source evidence
- experimental_model
- Crotonyl-CoA hydratase assays in control human fibroblasts
- limitations
- This shared short-chain reaction can process lysine-derived crotonyl-CoA, but the assay does not trace its carbon from lysine. Disease results are not used to label the control reaction as machinery impairment.
- organism
- Homo sapiens
- plain_language
- Water is added across the four-carbon intermediate's double bond.
