What changes in fatty acid metabolism would result from a mutation in the muscle carnitine acyltransferase I in which the mutant

protein has lost its affinity for malonyl-CoA but not its catalytic activity?
A. Fatty acid synthesis in the mitochondria and fatty acid oxidation in the cytosol could occur simultaneously.
B. Fatty acid synthesis in the cytosol and fatty acid oxidation in the mitochondria could occur simultaneously.
C. Synthesis of malonyl carnitine could only occur at high malonyl-CoA concentration.
D. Synthesis of malonyl-CoA would no longer be inhibited carnitine.

Answer:

<h2>B. Fatty acid synthesis in the cytosol and fatty acid oxidation in the mitochondria could occur simultaneously.</h2>

Explanation:

Carnitine acyltransferase I, is a mitochodrial enzyme also known as Carnitine palmitoyltransferase I (CPT1).

The acyl group is transferred to carnitine by the cytoplasmic form of the enzyme by Carnitine acyltransferase I

Malonyl coA would no longer inhibit fatty acid entry into the mitochondrion and beta oxidation, so there might be a futile cycle of simultaneous fatty acid synthesis in the cytosol and fatty acid breakdown in mitochondria.

How many paths through which charge can flow would be shown in a circuit diagram of a parallel circuit? more information is need
Tasya [4]

Answer: More than 1

Explanation:

A parallel circuit is defined by having more than one path through which current can flow. This is in contrast to a Series circuit where the current flows through just one path.

Even though there are multiple paths for the current to flow through, the current flowing through all the paths must add up to the total current that is being supplied from the source.
