Question
Stearic acid is the common name for the C18 straight-chain, saturated fatty acid. Draw the structure of
the fatty acyl-CoA that this forms (you don't have to draw out all of the atoms in coenzyme A; you can
represent it as S-CoA), and then show all of the reactions (draw all of the compounds formed) when the
eighteen carbon fat is converted to two molecules of acetyl-CoA and the fourteen-carbon fat via two
turns of the fatty acid spiral. List the enzymes and coenzymes that are part of the pathway.
