Mouse Gene Set: GOBP_FATTY_ACID_ALPHA_OXIDATION

For the Human gene set with the same name, see GOBP_FATTY_ACID_ALPHA_OXIDATION

Standard name GOBP_FATTY_ACID_ALPHA_OXIDATION
Systematic name MM4021
Brief description A metabolic pathway by which 3-methyl branched fatty acids are degraded. These compounds are not degraded by the normal peroxisomal beta-oxidation pathway, because the 3-methyl blocks the dehydrogenation of the hydroxyl group by hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase. The 3-methyl branched fatty acid is converted in several steps to pristenic acid, which can then feed into the beta-oxidative pathway. [PMID:10198260]
