Answer:

4 ATP molecules

Explanation:

Normally, about 11 ATP molecules are generated as the result of Beta-Oxidation of saturated fatty acid in Kreb's Cycle. But the total removal of acetyl-CoA under certain aerobic condition decreases the overall yield and approximately 4 ATP molecules comes out from each removal of acetyl-CoA.

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

p53 gene is an important gene that regulates the proper functioning of the cell. This gene plays an important role in the cell cycle progression and acts as genome guardian.

Any mutation in p53 leads to the formation of the different types of cancer cells. The p53 gene is activated by teh phosphorylation at the particular sites.  High levels of phosphorylated p53 in the cell indicates that the cells DNA is highly damaged and mutated.
