Term Information

Accession: GO:0051793
Name: medium-chain fatty acid catabolic process
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: medium chain fatty acid catabolic process, medium chain fatty acid catabolism, medium-chain fatty acid breakdown, medium-chain fatty acid catabolism, medium-chain fatty acid degradation
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of a medium-chain fatty acid. A medium-chain fatty acid has an aliphatic tail containing 6 to 12 carbons. Source: Wikipedia:Fatty_acid_metabolism
Comment: While there is not universal consensus on the lengths of short-, medium-, long- and very-long-chain fatty acids, the GO uses the definitions in ChEBI (see CHEBI:26666, CHEBI:59554, CHEBI:15904 and CHEBI:27283).
