chem test #4 Flashcards
step 1 (one nail polish to the ox)
acetyl from acetyl-CoA is transferred to oxaloacetate
step 2 (2 citrates make ice-o)
citrate is isomerized by OH group to make isocitrate
step 3 (3 isocitrates lose car on keto diet)
isocitrate loses CO2 and is oxidized to a-ketogluterate
step 4 (4 ketos and coA lose car with succulents)
ketogluterate reacts w/ coenzyme A and loses CO2 to make succinyl-CoA
step 5 (5 fingers makes succulents and GTP)
succinyl-CoA is set free and coupled with GTP formation
step 6 (six loses 2 balloons and the succulent is fuming)
2 hydrogen are removed from succinate and it makes fumerate
step 7 (at 7/11 water added to fumes makes malate)
water is added to double bond of fumerate and makes malate
step 8 (at 8 p.m. the malate turns into ox) (BUT how?)
malate is oxidized and returns to oxaloacetate
difference in structure between wax and triacylglycerol
the triacylglycerol has the CH-O backbone on the left (3 CHs) and a wax has CHs on both sides.
glycerophospholipids structure
just a glycerol with a phosphate group attached to the last CH2
what has amine group?
sphingosine and gylcolipids - these are the 2 member of the sphingolipids groups
structure of sphingolipid
it’s a sphingosine w/ a fatty acid acyl group attached to the NH2 part
sphingosine structure (spring Oh, nitro, oh)
4 carbons with an OH at top, NH2 on second, and OH on 3rd, CH-something on the last carbon
lipids that have a phosphate group (phosphate PGS)
phosopholipids, gylcerophospholipids, sphinomylins,
fatty acids structure (fatty straight COOH)
straight chain with COOH on the end
lipids that have an alcohol (OH) group (WTFGSS like alcohol)
waxes, triacylglycerol, sterols, fatty acids, glycolipids, sphingosine,
lipids that are amphipathic (BP amp)
bile acids, phospholipids
bile acids purpose
Essential for the emulsification of fats during digestion
what makes glycerophospholipids emulsifying agents?
Hydrophobic tails and hydrophilic head groups make…
lipoproteins
HDL and LDL
