Asked by Sara

How many molecules of ATP are produced from the β oxidation of linoleate? (please answer the ?s)

Linoleate is a (?) carbon fatty acid. If it were completely saturated,
(?) ATP would be generated via β oxidation. However, linoleate has one double bond at the 9,10 position, which must be converted from the cis to the trans isomer, resulting in the loss of (?) QH2 ( (?)ATP). In addition, an NADPH-dependent reduction of the 12,13 double bond costs (?) ATP. This reduces the ATP total by (?), so oxidation of linoleate yields (?)ATP.
