Please help with questions #10 and #11. Fatty acid degradation is a slow process that occurs by cutting out 2 carbon units at a time. Question 8: (3 points) what are all the reagents other than the fatty acid needed for this process? All the reagents needed in beta-oxidation of fatty acid break down are – acyl coA dehydrogenase to form enoyl coA, enoyl coA hydratase to form 3-hydroxy acyl coA, hydroxy acyl-coA dehydrogenase to form beat-ketoacyl coA, and thiolase...

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?...

10. Please identify two enzymes that catalyze substrate-level phosphorylation reactions, one in glycolysis and one in the tricarboxylic acid cycle. For each, identify the high-energy substrate that provides the energy to drive the phosphoryl transfer. 11. How are the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex and the a-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex similar and how are they different?
