Omega Oxidation

The video tutorial explains omega oxidation, a process distinct from beta oxidation, focusing on the oxidation of the omega carbon in fatty acids. It details the enzymatic steps involved, including the role of cytochrome P-450 and the conversion of fatty acids to alcohols, aldehydes, and carboxylates. The tutorial also covers the subsequent beta oxidation, leading to the formation of succinate and adipate, and hints at future discussions on adipate catabolism.
