You decide to study fatty acid metabolism in cells that areactively synthesizing fatty acids. For your experiments, you have a number of tracer molecules labeled with carbon-14.
a.) First, you introduce radioactive malonyl CoA into the cytoplasm. Where will the radioactivity appear, if any where, in the newly synthesized fatty acids?
b) Where would radioactive acetyl Coa appear?
c) Where would radioactive CO2 appear?
