Answer B: A Co-enzyme A group must be added.
Explanation: The catabolism of fatty acids (beta oxidation process) include the following steps for even carbon number satturated fatty acids.
- Addition of a co-enzyme A group.
- Dehydrogenation by FAD (enzyme is Acyl CoA dehydrogenase)
- Hydration
- Oxidation by NAD+
- Thiolysis

2. Stearic acid is the common name for the C18 straight-chain, saturated fatty acid. (a) Draw the structure of the fatty acyl-CoA that this forms (you don't have to draw out all of the atoms in coenzyme A; you can represent it as S-CoA), and then show all of the reactions (draw all of the compounds formed) when the eighteen carbon fat is converted to two molecules of acetyl-CoA and the fourteen-carbon fat via two turns...

An activated fatty acid (acyl-CoA) can be transported into the mitochondria for b-oxidation or remain in the cytosol for lipogenesis to produce a triacylglycerol. What regulates the fate of this acyl-CoA? A. the amount of acyl-CoA in the mitochondria B. the amount of acyl-carnitine in the mitochondria C. the amount of NADH in the cytoplasm D. the amount of malonyl CoA in the cytoplasm E. the amount of acetyl-CoA in the cytoplasm

Stage 2: Fatty Acid Degradation to Acetyl CoA (The Fatty Acid Cycle, aka "B-Oxidation") 1. In the space below, draw the reaction for the activation of palmitic acid, a saturated 16-carbon fatty acid. 2. In the space below, fill in the structure for the reactant acyl CoA and draw all of the products that result from one turn of the fatty acid cycle. Is this reaction an oxidation or a reduction? 3. Besides fatty acid oxidation, glycerol (the other product of triglyceride digestion)...

Fatty acid oxidation occurs in the mitochondrial matrix. However, long-chain fatty acyl-CoA molecules cannot cross the inner membrane to enter the matrix. The carnitine shuttle system transfers the acyl group from CoA to carnitine, which can enter the mitochondrial matrix.
Label the enzymes and compounds of the carnitine shuttle system. The following enzyme abbreviations are used: carnitine acyltransferase I, CAT1; mitochondrial carnitine acyltransferase II, CAT2; and carnitine/acylcarnitine translocase (carnitine carrier protein), CAT.

Please help with questions #10 and #11. Fatty acid degradation is a slow process that occurs by cutting out 2 carbon units at a time. Question 8: (3 points) what are all the reagents other than the fatty acid needed for this process? All the reagents needed in beta-oxidation of fatty acid break down are – acyl coA dehydrogenase to form enoyl coA, enoyl coA hydratase to form 3-hydroxy acyl coA, hydroxy acyl-coA dehydrogenase to form beat-ketoacyl coA, and thiolase...

Fatty Acid Metabolism. The reactions of the fatty acid spiral are shown below. Use the description on the left side of the page to classify the reactions and fill in the boxes on the right side of the page Activation Step. The activation of the fatty acid begins by the addition of CoA which will carry the fatty acid from the cytosol into the mitochondria. The product, which is a fatty acid with a CoA attached, is known as a...
