Category:GO:0051793 ! medium-chain fatty acid catabolic process
name: medium-chain fatty acid catabolic process
namespace: biological_process
def: "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." [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).
