title: Antibodies to long-chain acyl-CoAs. A new tool for lipid biochemistry.
abstract: Antibodies directed against long chain acyl-CoAs (having 16 and 18 carbon atoms) have been prepared and are reported for the first time. A modified ELISA procedure adapted to these amphiphilic molecules has been developed: it is a rapid, simple and sensitive test permitting to detect as little as 3 pmol of acyl-CoA. These antibodies represent a new tool for studying long-chain acyl-CoAs. Their use in an immunochemical approach for the study of protein-acyl-CoA interactions is presented.
