Chapter 19 Lipids
Goals • Know and draw lipids • Understand and identify steroids and vitamins • Describe biological membranes and cell transport processes.
Lipids • Efficient storage of energy • Found in
Lipid Varieties • Triacylglycerol • Glycerophospholipids, cholesterol • Bile salts
Classification of Lipids • Based on Solubility behavior • Amphipathic
Hydrolyzable • Can be split apart • Contain • Saponification
Nonhydrolyzable • No • No • Nonsaponifiable lipids
Fatty Acids • Long, straight chain • Saturated • Unsaturated
Physical Properties • Depend on number of C • Solubility • Melting point
Triacylglycerol • Triglycerides • Triesters of glycerol • Simple – all • Complex – different
Triglycerides • Animal fat: • Cis bonds have similar effect on mp as in fatty acids • All are
Reactions of Triglycerides • Hydrolysis • Acid catalyzed yields • Basic catalyzed (saponification) yields
Digestion of Triglycerides • Too big to pass through intestinal membranes • Hydrolyzed by • Packaged into • Hydrolyzed • Stored in
Catalytic Hydrogenation • Addition of Hydrogen to • Hardens the triglyceride • Margarine
Rancidity • Development of unpleasant odor
Waxes • Protective functions • Structural – • Energy storage – • Esters of fatty acids and long chain alcohols • Commercial uses
Amphipathic hydrolyzables • Glycerophospholipids • Sphingolipids • Both have hydrophilic and hydrophobic groups • Allows for insertion into cell membrane
Glycerophospholipid • Esterification of glycerol with two fatty acids and one phosphoric acid • See Table 19.3 p. 569 • Made with choline = lecithin
Sphingolipids • Based on sphingosine • Two types
Uses • Cell walls • Contain oligosaccharides – • Deficiencies
Steroids • Nonhydrolyzable lipids with base steroid ring structure • Includes
Hormones • Synthesized in and secreted by the • Regulate • Very effective at low concentrations (10-12-10-9M)
Adrenocortical hormones • Cortisol • Aldosterone
Sex Hormones • Produced in gonads • Female • Male • Contraceptives page 573
Bile Salts • Carboxylate salt • Essential for • Secreted into the small intestine after
Eicosanoids • Leukotrienes • Prostaglandins • Thromboxanes
Vitamins • Water soluble: • Fat soluble: • D is technically a steroid hormone • Deficiencies cause problems • See box 19.4 p 577
Biological Membranes • Compartmentalization • Selective • Cell recognition • Communication • Maintain ion concentrations against gradient
Membrane structure • Lipid bilayer • Amphipathic lipids • Assorted proteins • Integral • peripheral • Sugars for recognition • Fluid mosaic model p. 579
Transport • Simple - diffusion along a gradient • Facilitated – uses transporters • Active – uses a pump • Na+/K+ pump uses energy from hydrolysis of ATP to ADP to work • Exocytosis – exporting material • Endocytosis - importing
