Video Summary
Fatty acids are one of the essential forms of energy storage. The biosynthesis of fatty acids is a multi-step process in the cytoplasm, mainly of the liver and fat cells. The process takes place in three major steps: the citrate shuttle, acetyl-CoA carboxylase (the rate-limiting step), and fatty acid synthase complex.
