And in this three step process, we transform the proponent Co enzyme A into a suckyl coenzyme A. So we see that the ultimate fate of this proponel coenzyme A that we produce in the oxidation, the breakdown of our chain fatty acids, is to form the substantial coenzyme A. Why? Well, because the succinct coenzyme A is an intermediate of the citric acid cycle. So we basically form the succinct coenzyme A, place it into the citric acid cycle, and that helps us generate ATP molecules that the cell can use for energy. So what exactly is this three step process?
