Synthesis of fatty acids
- Type of metabolic pathway: anabolic
- Main goal: synthesis of fatty acids from acetyl-CoA
- Subcellular localization: cytosol
- Number of biochemical reactions (per cycle): 4
- Energetic outcome (per cycle): -2 NADPH and -1 ATP
- Final product (per cycle): fatty acid chain with two more carbons
This blog intends to display concepts, informations, musics, videos, games, cartoons, curiosities about biochemical issues. Because Biochemistry does not have to be incomprehensible...
