Free palmitate is activated to palmitoyl-CoA in the cytosol before it can be oxidized in the mitochondria. If palmitate and [14
Bingel [31]
<h2>Fatty acid oxidation </h2>

Explanation:

  • Activation of fatty acids (palmitate) occurs in the cytoplasm where fatty acids are activated to fatty acyl CoA, reaction catalysed by an enzyme called fatty acyl CoA synthetase
  • A specialized carnitine carrier system catalyze transportation of activated fatty acid from cytoplasm to matrix of mitochondria, where carnitine system consists of three proteins:
  • Carnitine acyl transferase I located in outer membrane of mitochondria catalyze transfer of carnitine to fatty acyl CoA and produce fatty acyl carnitine
  • Carnitine translocase facilitate passive diffusion of fatty acyl carnitine from inter membrane space to matrix located in inner membrane
  • Carnitine acyl transferase III located in inner mitochondrial membrane at matrix phase catalyze transfer of CoA to fatty acyl carnitine and regenerate fatty acyl CoA

Hence, the cytosolic and mitochondrial pools of CoA are thus kept separate, and no radioactive CoA from the cytosolic pool enters the mitochondria

How do birds deal with their eyes drying out at high speeds?
denis23 [38]
The bird's eye contains a nictitating membrane which is a translucent, semitransparent inner eyelid. It sweeps across the surface of the eye enabling the bird to blink without losing sight of or without blocking their view.

Birds also have two different tear glands. One type of tear gland is located along the lower eyelid while the other is located at the base of the nictitating membrane. The second tear gland lubricates the bird's eyes whenever the nictitating membrane blinks.
