Give an overview for the oxidative breakdown of a six-carbon,
saturated fatty acid. Decide how the fatty acid enters
mitochondria, and write the reaction by which it gets activated.
Write the four reactions of the beta-oxidation pathway. Indicate in
which cellular compartment the reactions take place. Use structural
formulas for the reactions except for cofactors, ATP, etc. Name the
enzyme for each reaction.
