The reaction : succinyl Co A +acetoacetate and acetoacetyl Co A + succinate occurs in all of the following except ?

Thiophorase (acetoacetate – succinyl CO A, Co A transferase) is the enzyme responsible for transfer of Co A to acetoacetate converting it into acetoacetyl Co A which is responsible for utilization of ketone bodies. Liver cells do not have enzyme thiophorase and so they can not utilize ketone bodies
