alty Acid Catabolism Beta Oxidation Reaction% Homa Work for monday Exarr"?? the ture to answer the following questions Fatty acyl CoA af 18C 1. How is the fatty scyi Co at the top of the cycle diff rom the famy acyl Cok st the bottom of the cyde? 2. How many reduced nucleolióes are produced in one HO H 3. How many acetyl CoA molecadies are produced in one sCo NADI 4. a ore acetyl CoA is produced tor one cycke of - oxidatian, 'how many cycdes wauld W take to cataboize a stearc acid moleaule (18 carbons) mo acetyi CaR 4 CoA-SH b. How many acetyt Coe molecules would be produced in the catabolism of a stearic acid molecule (18 carbons)? Fatty acyl CoA of 160c repeats cycle (reactions 1-4) c. How many reduced uckeotides are be produced?

Explanation / Answer

Answewr-1

Fatty acyl –CoA (18C) at the top of the cycle is 18 carbons long but after beta-oxidation 2 carbon atoms are released in the form of acetyl CoA. So at the end of the beta-oxidation the Fatty acyl –CoA is 2 corbon atoms shorter than Fatty acyl –CoA (18C;present at top) .

Answer-2

In one cycle 2 reduced nucleotides are produced i.e FADH2 and NADH

Answer-3

In one cycle only one acetyl CoA is produced

Answer-4

To produce 8 acetyl CoA molecules from stearic acid, it will take 8 cycle of beta-oxidation.

Answer-4

9 molecules of acetyl CoA

Answer-5

Total 16 reduced nucleotide will produced from one molecule of stearic acid
