Write out the sequence of reactions for the conversion of myristoyl-CoA to lauroyl-CoA and Acetyl-CoA. Include the names of the enzymes and any necessary cofactors.
Myristoyl-CoA = CH3-(CH2)12-CO-SCoA
Lauroyl-CoA = CH3-(CH2)10-CO-SCoA
So, one round of beta-oxidation of Myristoyl-CoA produces 1 Acetyl CoA molecule and Lauroyl-CoA.
