Fatty acid synthesis- lecture 2 (Acetyl co A carboxylase)
The fatty acid synthesis starts with the carboxylation of acetyl CoA to malonyl CoA. This irreversible reaction is the committed step in fatty acid synthesis (figure 1). Figure- 1- Showing the formation of Malonyl co A from Acetyl co A Bicarbonate as a source of CO2 is required in the initial reaction for the carboxylation […]
