Fatty Acid (Beta) Oxidation | Metabolism

Watch next - Fatty acid synthesis: https://youtu.be/qZemiM8JLEg If you'd like to support EKG Science 💙 PayPal - https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/ekgscience --- In this lecture, EKG is going to cover Fatty Acid (Beta) Oxidation—looking at how fatty acids are oxidised to acetyl-CoA to yield energy. We're going to break down the process of beta-oxidation to yield acetyl-CoA and how the electrons extracted from the fatty acids travel to the electron transport chain and produce ATP. In the end, we'll calculate the overall ATP yield per B-Oxidation cycle.  Table of Contents: 0:00 Intro 0:48 Fatty Acid Transport Review 1:40 Beta-Oxidation Overview 3:18 Beta-Oxidation Cycle Steps 6:08 Summary of What We've Produced 9:08 Total ATP Yield Lecture Source: Nelson, D.
