The control of mitochondrial β-oxidation, including the delivery of acyl moieties from the
plasma membrane to the mitochondrion, is reviewed. Control of β-oxidation flux appears to …

Mitochondrial β‐oxidation is a complex pathway involving, in the case of saturated straight
chain fatty acids of even carbon number, at least 16 proteins which are organized into two …

The accumulation of β-oxidation intermediates was studied by incubating normal and β-
oxidation enzyme-deficient human fibroblasts with [2 H 4] linoleate and L-carnitine and …

Publisher Summary Oxidation of fatty acids is the mechanism by which the body can utilize
the relatively large amounts of energy contained in fatty acids. This process is strictly …

The enzymic stages of mammalian mitochondrial β-oxidation were elucidated some 30–40
years ago. However, the discovery of a membrane-associated multifunctional enzyme of β …

The mitochondrial carnitine system plays an obligatory role in β-oxidation of long-chain fatty
acids by catalyzing their transport into the mitochondrial matrix. This transport system …

1. The effects of mitochondrial swelling, acylcarnitine/camitine ratio, NADH/NAD ratio,
energy state, and of citric acid cycle intermediates on the β-oxidation of (−)[U-14 C] …

The control of fatty acid oxidation in heart is reviewed with special emphasis on the energy-
linked regulation of this process. Studies with perfused working hearts and isolated …

Mitochondria and fatty acids are tightly connected to a multiplicity of cellular processes that
go far beyond mitochondrial fatty acid metabolism. In line with this view, there is hardly any …

1. The CoA and carnitine esters of 2-bromopalmitate are extremely powerful and specific
inhibitors of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation. 2. 2-Bromopalmitoyl-CoA, added as such or …
