I don't understand it. Can you help me? Can u help me to explain this to me, please? 15.22) What is the net gain in ATP for B-oxidation ofpalmitic acid (a sixteen-carbon fatty acid)?ANSWER: 107 ATPEXPLANATION:First, palmitic acid is activated to produce a 16-carbonfatty acyl-CoA. The activation step consumes one ATP.A 16-carbon fatty acyl-CoA will undergo seven ß-oxidationspirals. Each of the first six spirals of ß-oxidation producesone acetyl-CoA, one NADH, and one FADH₂. The finalcycle of the spiral produces two acetyl-CoA, one NADH,and one FADH₂. The acetyl-CoA are processed throughthe citric acid cycle, producing ATP and more reducedcoenzymes. The NADH, and FADH₂ formed in ß-oxidation, and the NADH, and FADH₂ formed in the citricacid cycle undergo oxidative phosphorylation. Becauseone ATP was consumed in the activation reaction, it issubtracted when calculating the net gain of ATP. ß-oxidation of a sixteen-carbon fatty acid, on average, resultsin a net gain of 107 ATP.fatty acyl-CoAwith 16 carbonsCHÍCH CHỊCHỊCHÍCHÍCHÍCH CHÍHACHCHANH CÁCH CỦAfatty acyl-CoAwith 4 carbonsfatty acyl-CoAwith 14 carbonsCHÍCHÍCH-CH-CHCHCH;CH;CHCH-CH;CH,CH–CAfatty acyl-CoAwith 10 carbonsCHÍCHÍCH CHCH_CH,CH,CH,CH C–CaAFor more details: See chapter 15 part 11 video orfatty acyl-CoAwith 8 carbonsCHCHCH,CH,CH,CH,CH,C—CoAfatty acyl-CoAwith 6 carbonsCH,CH-CH:CH-CH₂C-Casacetyl-CoAfatty acyl-CoAwith 12 carbonsCH,CH,CH,CH,CH,CH,CH_CH,CH,CH,CH,C–CoA |CH₂CH₂CH₂C-COA-‒‒‒‒‒ Total: 8 acetyl-CoACitricAcidCycleSubtract one ATP that was usedin the activation reaction8 ATP22.5 ATP077.5 ATP-1 ATPacetyl-CoA FADH₂acetyl-CoA FADH₂ + NADHNADHacetyl-CoA FADH₂ NADHacetyl-CoA FADH₂ + NADHacetyl-CoA + FADH₂ + NADHiacetyl-CoA + FADH₂ NADHacetyl-CoA FADH₂ + NADH1.5 ATP1 FADH₂Totals:Oxidative Phosphorylation 15 FADH₂ 31 NADH2.5 ATP1 NADH8 FADH₂ + 24 NADH
