In liver, which of the following inhibitory effects is the key regulatory event that ensures newly synthesized palmitoyl-coa is not immediately oxidized?
a. acyl-coa synthetase by malonyl-coa
b. carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase (cat) by palmitoyl-coa
c. carnitine-palmitoyl transferase-i (cpt-i) by malonyl-coa
d. cpt-i by palmitoylcarnitine
e. carnitine-palmitoyl transferase-ii (cpt-ii) by acetyl-coa

C. Carnitine-palmitoyl transferase-I (CPT-I) by malonyl-CoA.

Explanation: Carnitine-palmitoyl transferase-I (CPT-I) is a mitochondrial protein that mediates  transport of long-chain fatty acids from cytoplasm to mitochondria, bond to carnitine (amine derived from lysine and methionine). This transport into the mitochondria is for the fatty acid can be oxidized, to produce energy. After food intake, glucose levels rise and the concentration of acetyl-CoA rises too and Malonyl-CoA is synthetize and inhibite the CPT-I transport. High levels of Malonyl-CoA mean that energy are avaible and fatty acids can be made, hence, not oxidize.

his research revealed two genetically different groups of prokaryotes, which justified splitting kingdom monera into two kingdoms. the genetic and cellular differences were so great, that these two kingdoms were eventually placed into different domains in the current three-domain system.

this protocol provides a detailed procedure for nucleoprotein extraction from cultured cells and tissues in an efficient manner.
