What are the different roles played the acyl carrier protein (ACP) and the ketoacyl synthase (KS) domain during fatty acid synthesis?
A) The ACP carries the growing fatty acid chain more than the KS domain.
B) The KS domain holds the growing fatty acid chain, whereas the ACP delivers two carbon fragments.
C) The KS domain associates with the fatty acid synthase enzyme, whereas the ACP does not.
D) The ACP delivers two carbon fragments one at a time, whereas the KS domain passes them on to the fatty acid.
