What changes in fatty acid metabolism would result from a mutation in the muscle carnitine acyltransferase I in which the mutant

protein has lost its affinity for malonyl-CoA but not its catalytic activity?
A. Fatty acid synthesis in the mitochondria and fatty acid oxidation in the cytosol could occur simultaneously.
B. Fatty acid synthesis in the cytosol and fatty acid oxidation in the mitochondria could occur simultaneously.
C. Synthesis of malonyl carnitine could only occur at high malonyl-CoA concentration.
D. Synthesis of malonyl-CoA would no longer be inhibited carnitine.

Answer:

<h2>B. Fatty acid synthesis in the cytosol and fatty acid oxidation in the mitochondria could occur simultaneously.</h2>

Explanation:

Carnitine acyltransferase I, is a mitochodrial enzyme also known as Carnitine palmitoyltransferase I (CPT1).

The acyl group is transferred to carnitine by the cytoplasmic form of the enzyme by Carnitine acyltransferase I

Malonyl coA would no longer inhibit fatty acid entry into the mitochondrion and beta oxidation, so there might be a futile cycle of simultaneous fatty acid synthesis in the cytosol and fatty acid breakdown in mitochondria.

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer: Plants use Carbon Dioxide to produce sugars and energy, so you could expect the high-energy sugars to be depleted as the sugars are used to produce energy, and the sugars cannot be replaced as fast as they are being used.

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Crossing over and random distribution of chromosome will lead to random assortment of new combinations of alleles on the same chromosome.

Explanation:

Crossing can be defined as the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes.

Variation can occur when the sister chromatids have mixture of alleles ( paternal).

This leads to genetic diversity.

This genetic variation is the bedrock and foundation of evolution. This bring about differences in different organisms and when organism differs genetically, they will have different level of adaptability and survival instincts. The eventual result of this is survival of the fittest.
