1. As stated previously, FFA1 has an affinity for long chain fatty acids . 2. Diagnosis is made by a blood test to detect very long chain fatty acids . 3. This enzyme is also called "'long chain fatty acid peroxidase " '. 4. The elongation of microsomal long and very long chain fatty acid consists of 4 sequential reactions. 5. Chemically, transesterified biodiesel comprises a mix of mono-alkyl esters of long chain fatty acids . 6. In step one, ATP and a long chain fatty acid enter the enzyme s active site. 7. Plant waxes consist of very long chain fatty acids that have been esterified to very long chain alcohols. 8. The pathway functions to deliver very long chain fatty acids to the cornified lipid envelope of the skin surface. 9. This peroxisomal membrane protein is likely involved in the peroxisomal transport or catabolism of very long chain fatty acids . 10. Long chain fatty acid uptake is mediated by several transporters, including FAT ( fatty acid translocase ) / CD36.
