Long-chain fatty acids have an alkyl chain of more than 10 carbon atoms. fatty acids with alkyl chains of this length are characterized as in terms of polarity and in terms of size. this length decreases their ability to cross the lipid bilayer of the mitochondrial membrane. as a result, such fatty acids are activated in the cytoplasm by . however, the resulting molecule, fatty acyl-coa, is still too to cross the membrane. therefore, a protein system involving carnitine is required for this transport to occur.
