Human Gene Set: GOBP_FATTY_ACID_BETA_OXIDATION

For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see GOBP_FATTY_ACID_BETA_OXIDATION

Standard name GOBP_FATTY_ACID_BETA_OXIDATION
Systematic name M6999
Brief description A fatty acid oxidation process that results in the complete oxidation of a long-chain fatty acid. Fatty acid beta-oxidation begins with the addition of coenzyme A to a fatty acid, and occurs by successive cycles of reactions during each of which the fatty acid is shortened by a two-carbon fragment removed as acetyl coenzyme A; the cycle continues until only two or three carbons remain (as acetyl-CoA or propionyl-CoA respectively).
