name: fatty acid omega-oxidation
namespace: biological_process
def: "A fatty acid oxidation process in which the methyl group at the end of the fatty acid molecule (the omega carbon) is first oxidized to a hydroxyl group, then to an oxo group, and finally to a carboxyl group. The long chain dicarboxylates derived from omega-oxidation then enter the beta-oxidation pathway for further degradation." [MetaCyc:PWY-2724, PMID:16404574]
