The activation step consumes one ATP. -carbon fatty acyl-CoA will undergo seven ß-oxidation _ls. Each of the first six spirals of ß-oxidation produces acetyl-CoA, one NADH, and one FADH₂. The final of the spiral produces two acetyl-CoA, one NADH, one FADH₂. The acetyl-CoA are processed through itric acid cycle, producing ATP and more reduced zymes. The NADH, and FADH₂ formed in ß- ation, and the NADH, and FADH₂ formed in the citric cycle undergo oxidative phosphorylation.

15.22) What is the net gain in ATP for ß-oxidation of
palmitic acid (a sixteen-carbon fatty acid)?
ANSWER: 107 ATP
EXPLANATION:
First, palmitic acid is activated to produce a 16-carbon
fatty acyl-CoA. The activation step consumes one ATP.
A 16-carbon fatty acyl-CoA will undergo seven ß-oxidation
spirals. Each of the first six spirals of ß-oxidation produces
one acetyl-CoA, one NADH, and one FADH₂. The final
cycle of the spiral produces two acetyl-CoA, one NADH,
and one FADH₂. The acetyl-CoA are processed through
the citric acid cycle, producing ATP and more reduced
coenzymes. The NADH, and FADH₂ formed in ß-
oxidation, and the NADH, and FADH₂ formed in the citric
acid cycle undergo oxidative phosphorylation. Because
one ATP was consumed in the activation reaction, it is
subtracted when calculating the net gain of ATP. B-
oxidation of a sixteen-carbon fatty acid, on average, results
in a net gain of 107 ATP.
