Iyini i-beta oxidation?
Ku-biochemistry kanye ne-metabolism, i-beta oxidation (futhi i-β-oxidation) inqubo ye-catabolic lapho ama-molecule e-fatty acid ahlukaniswa khona ku-cytosol kuma-prokaryotes naku-mitochondria kuma-eukaryotes ukukhiqiza i-acetyl-CoA, engena kumjikelezo we-citric acid, kanye ne-NADH ne-FADH2, okuyi-co-enzymes esetshenziswa ku-electron transport chain. Ibizwa kanjalo ngoba i - beta carbon ye - fatty acid i - oxidation ibe yi - carbonyl group. I-beta-oxidation iqiniswa ngokuyinhloko iprotheni ye-mitochondrial trifunctional, i-enzyme complex ehambisana ne-membrane yangaphakathi ye-mitochondrial, nakuba ama-fatty acids anamaketanga amade kakhulu e-peroxisomes.
