Question

4. Bio-exergonic reaction of fatty-acyl-CoA formation​

Answer 1

Answer:

Fatty acids are activated by reaction with CoA to form fatty acyl CoA. The reaction normally occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum or the outer mitochondrial membrane. This is an ATP-requiring reaction, yielding AMP and pyrophosphate (PPi). Different enzymes are specific for fatty acids of different chain length.
