A very long-chain fatty acid has an aliphatic tail containing more than 22 carbons. very long-chain fatty-acyl-CoA degradation 2012-02-15T11:16:11Z 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).
