Beta-Oxidation of Fatty Acids Lipid Metabolism · Mitochondrial matrix (peroxisome for VLCFA)
step 3
Irreversible/directional
Acylcarnitine (cytosolic side) → acylcarnitine (matrix side)
Converts Acylcarnitine into Acylcarnitine
› Notes
The inner-membrane carnitine–acylcarnitine translocase (CACT) exchanges incoming acylcarnitine for free carnitine moving outward. No ATP is directly consumed.
