     These hydroxyl fatty acids are then serially metabolized by alcohol dehydrogenase, aldehyde dehydrogenase, and dicarboxylyl CoA synthetase to form their respective CoA-bound dicarboxylic acids and transferred to peroxisomes where they may undergo chain shortening or, as acylcarnitine derivatives or free acids, transferred to mitochondria for complete beta oxidation.
