What is Rat Liver Peroxisomes and Fatty Acid Oxidation about?
This document summarizes a study investigating whether rat liver peroxisomes catalyze the beta-oxidation of fatty acids. The authors purified peroxisomes from clofibrate-treated rat livers and tested for the presence of three enzymes involved in beta-oxidation (crotonase, beta-hydroxybutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase, and thiolase) using spectroscopic techniques. All three enzymes were detected in peroxisomes. Fractionation studies found the enzyme activities peaked in peroxisomes, ruling out mitochondrial contamin
