Because plant-based oils...
The process of β-oxidation requires fatty acids to be activated by transfer to Coenzyme- A. This step is dependent on free energy provided by ATP. Briefly describe how breakage of high-energy bonds in ATP is linked to the transfer of fatty acids to Coenzyme A. What critical fatty acid intermediate is formed in this process? How is energy of phosphoanhydride bonds in ATP leveraged to facilitate the formation of the thioester bond between the fatty acid and Coenzyme A moieties?...
