Organic Chemistry of Metabolic Pathways
Metabolic pathways allude to the arrangement of chemical catalyzed reactions that lead to the transformation of a substance into the final product. Metabolic pathways incorporate a progression of reaction where the substrate is changed continuously and t…
Glucogenesis
Glucogenesis is a metabolic pathway in which glucose is produced from carbon substrates that are not carbohydrates. This process is observed in plants, animals, fungi, bacteria and other micro organisms. The general  definition for glucogenesis or glucon…

Chapter 14.5, Problem 3QQ
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason for the net ATP production being 2 less than the gross production during a β-oxidation process has to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The total ATP molecules produced by the oxidation of a fatty acid molecule is the sum of all the ATP molecules produced from the metabolic products, acetyl CoA, FADH2 and NADH. Acetyl CoA generated by the β-oxidation enters the citric acid cycle in the mitochondria where it undergoes oxidation to generate FADH2 and NADH. The FADH2 and NADH generated by both β-oxidation and the citric acid cycle are utilized by the mitochondrial electron transport chain to generate ATP molecules. These ATP molecules act as units of energy.
