| Back | synthesis of phospholipids and steroids, detoxification reactions (hydroxylation - addition of OH group), storage of Ca2+ ions at a concentration 10^3 greater than in the cytosol. |

| Front | How are fatty acids inside the cell activated and transported into the mitochondria? |
| Back | Activated by converting FA to fatty acyl-CoA by acyl-CoA synthetaseTransported by:fatty acyl-CoA+carnitine → fatty acylcarnitine (by CPT-I)carnitine and fatty acylcarnitine engage in antiportfatty acylcarnitine+CoASH → fatty acyl-CoA (by CPT-II)
