in the mitochondria

Question 16

What is the site of fatty acid syntehsis

Answer 16

cytoplasm

Question 17

How do hormones regulate ACC1?

Answer 17

• Glucagon and epinephrine: inactivate ACC1 through AMP.
  induce the mobilization of fatty acids to break down
• INsulin: activates ACC1, also provide glucose -> acetyl coA for fatty acid syntehsis

Question 18

How does insulin stimulate fatty acid synthesis?

Answer 18

By increasing glucose uptake -> activating the PDH -> make acetyl coA and stimutaling ATP-citrate lyase , and activating ACC1 (by dephosphorylation)

Which tissues use ketone bodies for energy

Answer 19

muscle, brain, heart, kidney
