fatty acid oxidation Flashcards
turnover of fatty acids
180 times
struture of fatty acid
gylcerol + ester linkage + fatty acids
essential fatty acids
arachidonic, linoleic, linolenic
metling point of sat vs. unsat
saturated higher
transport of fatty acid traonsported with
serum albumin
fat enters cell via this transporter
acyl transporter
inhibit fatty acid lipase
insulin
promote fatty acd lipase
glucagon, epi, norepi
first step of fa synth
link to fatty acyl Coa
energy to prep fa to fatty acyl Coa
2 ATP
swaps with coA
carnitine
catalyzes the beta oxidation of fatty acids
fatty acyl CoA synthetase
degradation of glycogen to form glucose
glycogenolysis
AMP levels indicate this
rate of ATP utilization
2 ADP
AMP + ATP
Activator of glycolosis, glycogenolysis, and fatty acid oxidation
AMP
cause of lactic acidosis
increased NADH/NAD+ ratio
increased NADH prevents this
pyruvate oxidation in the TCA cycle
very long chain length fa
> C20
long chain FA
C12 to C20
med chain fa
C6-C12
short chain FA
C4
triagylclycerols are bound to these as they circulate through the blood
albumin
acitavted acyl group is transported into mitochondrial matrix bound to this
caritine
