Which of the following best explains why β-oxidation of fatty acids cannot efficiently occur under anaerobic conditions?
True or False: The stepwise oxidation of fatty acids is called β-oxidation because the β-carbon of the fatty acid is oxidized in each cycle.
Determine the number of acetyl-CoA molecules generated from the catabolism of stearic acid (CH3(CH2)16COOH), and provide the number of β-oxidations needed.
Which of the following reactions represents the last step in the catabolism of a fatty acid containing an even number of carbon atoms?
In the β-oxidation of stearic acid, a C18 fatty acid, which of the following reactions involves the conversion of stearoyl CoA and FAD to α,β-unsaturated stearoyl CoA and FADH2?
In the β-oxidation of stearic acid, a C18 fatty acid, which of the following reactions involves the conversion of stearic acid, CoA, and ATP to stearoyl CoA?
