Lecture 8 Oxidation of Fatty Acids
Utilization of Fat • Breakdown of triacylglycerides • Activation Coenzyme A derivative • Transport into mitochondria • b oxidation to 2 carbon units (Acetyl CoA)
Entry of fatty acid into mitochondria Acyl carnitine/ carnitine transporter
Steps of b oxidation For fatty acid with an even number of carbons 1) Dehydrogenation I 2) Hydration 3) Dehydrogenation II 4)Thiolytic cleavage
