Current Attempt in Progress
In a future section on the biochemistry of fatty acids, we will study the following three long-chain unsaturated carboxylic acids:
Oleic acid
$CH_3(CH_2)_7CH=CH(CH_2)_7COOH$
Linoleic acid
$CH_3(CH_2)_4CH=CHCH_2CH=CH(CH_2)_7COOH$
Linolenic acid
$CH_3CH_2CH=CHCH_2CH=CHCH_2CH=CH(CH_2)_7COOH$
Each has 18 carbons and is a component of animal fats, vegetable oils, and biological membranes. Because of their presence in animal
fats, they are called fatty acids.
