The 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA epimerase activity of rat liver peroxisomes is due to the combined actions of two enoyl-CoA hydratases: a revision of the epimerase-dependent pathway of unsaturated fatty acid oxidation.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Long noncoding RNAs (LncRNAs) show dysregulation in a variety of cancers. However, the function and specific mechanism of LncRNA GSEC in the progression of osteosarcoma remain mostly unknown. In this study, we sought to elucidate the role and mechanism of LncRNA GSEC in the occurrence and progression of oste...
