Abstract
AN enzyme dehydrogenating higher fatty acids has been described by several workers, including Lang and Mayer1 and Annau et al.2 Lang and Mayer showed that adenylic acid activated such a system in rat liver, while Annau et al. showed that hypoxanthine similarly activated a fatty acid dehydrogenase of ox liver.
