Textbook Question
Chapter 23, Problem 2LGP
The biosynthesis of fatty acids is accomplished two carbons at a time by an enzyme complex called fatty acid synthetase. The biochemical reactions involved in fatty acid synthesis are described in Special Topic G (WileyPLUS). Each of these biochemical reactions has a counter-part in synthetic reactions you have studied. Consider the biochemical reactions involved in adding each −-
