Why is the stepwise oxidation of fatty acid called B oxidation?
Part A Why is the stepwise oxidation of fatty acids called Boxidation? Stepwise oxidation of fatty acids is known as B oxidation because in this process the fatty acid is gradually oxidized to B-hydroxy propionic acid O Stepwise oxidation of fatty acids is known as B oxidation because the carbon B to the thioester group (two carbons away from the thioester group) is oxidized in the process Stepwise oxidation of fatty acids is known as B oxidation because the carbon B to the end of the fatty acid (one carbon away from the last carbon in the chain) is oxidized in the process. Stepwise oxidation of fatty acids is known as B oxidation because the carbon B to the end of the fatty acid (two carbons away from the last carbon in the chain) is oxidized in the process.
