Chapter 24, Problem 24.43AP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The number of moles of ATP produced by one cycle of β oxidation should be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Fatty acids are aliphatic mono-carboxylic acids that are mostly obtained from the hydrolysis of natural fats and oils. They have a general formula R(CH2)nCOOH, n is mostly an even number of carbon atoms (4 to 20) with a few exceptions that have an odd number

Fatty acids in the body are mostly oxidized by β oxidation.

β-oxidation is the oxidation and splitting of two carbon units at β- carbon atom. This results in sequential removal of 2 carbon fragments as acetyl CoA until the complete oxidation of fatty acids.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
How many moles of ATP are produced by one cycle of β oxidation?
What are the steps of beta-oxidation pathway?
How much ATP is formed from complete fatty acid oxidation?
