The first reaction in ''B''-oxidation, or fatty acid metabolism, is the catalyzation of the ester bond (C2 and C3) of the substrate Acyl-CoA. This is accomplished through '''Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase (ACDH)''' and its cofactor FAD. ACDH is classified according to its length of its substrates: short (SCAD), medium (MCAD), very and very long-chain (VLCAD). | |||
