1 The cDNA expression in both rat hepatoma H4IIEC3 and McA-RH7777 enhanced about 3-fold mitochondrial beta-oxidation activity of long-chain fatty acids such as palmitic acid and stearic acid; hence, VLCAD is probably a rate-limiting enzyme in the long-chain fatty acid beta-oxidation system in these cell lines. Palmitic Acid acyl-CoA dehydrogenase, very long chain Rattus norvegicus
