Lipids Flashcards
Fatty acids are stored as
TRIACYLGLYCEROL
Enzyme in DHAP (glycolysis)
Glycerol-3 phosphate dehydrogenase
In liver & tissue
Enzyme in phosphorylation of free glycerol
Glycerol kinase
Liver ONLY
Enzyme?
Triacylglycerol -> glycerol + 3 FAs
Hormone-sensitive lipase
Mobilization of stored fats is activated by
Glucagon and epinephrine
Phosphorylation
Mobilization of stored fats is inhibited by
Insulin
Dephosphorylation
Beta oxidation occurs in
Muscle and liver
FA activation - cytosol
B oxidation - mitochondria
Rate limiting step in beta oxidation
Translocation of fatty acyl coA
Enzyme in translocation of fatty acyl coA from cytosol to mitochondria
Carnitine-palmitoyl transferase
ATP yield of palmitate
