I want to know whether all fatty axids go through beta-oxidation or if there are only several types of fatty acids that undergo this process
Fa Ro
Inside mitochondria beta oxidation of fatty acids takes place in which two carbon atoms are removed in the form of acetyl-CoA from acyl-CoA at the carboxyl terminal. The bond is broken between the second carbon/beta carbon and the third carbon/gamma carbon, hence the name beta oxidation.
Saturated fatty acids undergo β-oxidation as described in detail here Oxidation of Fatty Acids but unsaturated fatty acids have a slight variation in the pathway. β-oxidation pathway for unsaturated fatty acids includes two additional enzymes isomerase and reductase.
Fatty acids occur as saturated and unsaturated (with one or more double bonds) fatty acids. Fatty acids majorly in triacylglycerols and phospholipids are present as unsaturated fatty acids in plants and animals. ... β-oxidation pathway for unsaturated fatty acids includes two additional enzymes isomerase and reductase.
Yes all fatty acids undergo beta oxidation in order to produce acetyl coA, However the process is not the same for saturated and unsaturated (MUFA AND PUFA) fats. Unsaturated fats beta oxidation pathway contains two additional enzymes: isomerase and reductase which aim to convert double bonds to trans compounds so the process continues
All fatty acids need to undergo beta oxidation, before they can be broken down.
yes all fatty acid oxidation
Oxidation of fatty acids occurs in multiple regions of the cell within the human body; the mitochondria, in which only Beta-oxidation occurs; the peroxisome, where alpha- and beta-oxidation occur; and omega-oxidation, which occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum.
Fatty acid β-oxidation is the process by which fatty acids are broken down to produce energy.
Leptin stimulates the oxidation of fatty acids and the uptake of glucose, and prevents the accumulation of lipids in nonadipose tissues, which can lead to functional impairments known as "lipotoxicity".
Hi
The calculation and processing protocols are well explained in the following paper:

I hope this helps!
