Reaction: ACSL3,4 ligates coenzyme A (CoA-SH) to palmitate yielding palmitoyl-coenzyme A in the pancreatic beta cell

- in pathway: Intracellular metabolism of fatty acids regulates insulin secretion
ACSL3 and ACSL4 found on the mitochondria of pancreatic beta cells ligate coenzyme A (Co-A) to fatty acids such as palmitate (Ansari et al. 2017) prior to transport into mitochondria by the carnitine system and beta oxidation in the mitochondrial matrix yielding ATP.
