  1. LIPID BIOSYNTHESIS • Fatty acid biosynthesis-basic fundamentals • Fatty acid biosynthesis-elongation and desaturation • Triacylglycerols • Phospholipids • Cholesterol • Cholesterol metabolism

  2. Cytosol Requires NADPH Acyl carrier protein D-isomer CO2 activation Keto  saturated Mitochondria NADH, FADH2 CoA L-isomer No CO2 Saturated  keto Fatty Acid Biosynthesis Synthesis Beta Oxidation

  3. Rule: Fatty acid biosynthesis is a stepwise assembly of acetyl-CoA units (mostly as malonyl-CoA) ending with palmitate (C16 saturated) 3 Phases Activation Elongation Termination

  5. Acetyl-CoA CarboxylaseThe rate-controlling enzyme of FA synthesis • In Bacteria -3 proteins (1) Carrier protein with Biotin (2) Biotin carboxylase (3) Transcarboxylase • In Eukaryotes - 1 protein (1) Single protein, 2 identical polypeptide chains • (2) Each chain Mwt = 230,000 (230 kDa) (3) Dimer inactive (4) Activated by citrate which forms filamentous form of protein that can be seen in the electron microscope

  14. acetyl-CoA PROBLEM: Fatty acid biosynthesis takes place in the cytosol. Acetyl-CoA is mainly in the Mitochondria How is acetyl-CoA made available to the cytosolic fatty acyl synthase? SOLUTION: Acetyl-CoA is delivered to cytosol from the mitochondria as CITRATE

  15. HS-CoA COO COO CH2 CH2 HO-C-COO HO-C-COO COO C=O CH2 CH2 COO COO CH2 COO Acetyl-CoA COO CO2 HO-C-H CH2 CO2 COO COO C=O NADP+ CH3 NADPH + H+ Acetyl-CoA mitochondria Citrate lyase OAA Malate dehydrogenase NADH L-malate L-malate Malic enzyme OAA Cytosol Pyr Pyruvate

  16. Post-Synthesis Modifications • C16 satd fatty acid (Palmitate) is the product • Elongation • Unsaturation • Incorporation into triacylglycerols • Incorporation into acylglycerol phosphates

  17. HS-CoA R-CH2CH2CH2C~SCoA OOC-CH2C~SCoA O O CO2 CH3C~SCoA O 3 2 1 R-CH2CH2CH2CCH2C~SCoA O O NADPH NADH - H2O NADPH R-CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2C~SCoA O Elongation of Chain (two systems) Malonyl-CoA* (cytosol) Acetyl-CoA (mitochondria) Elongation systems are found in smooth ER and mitochondria

  18. Desaturation Rules: The fatty acid desaturation system is in the smooth membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum There are 4 fatty acyl desaturase enzymes in mammals designated 9 , 6, 5, and 4 fatty acyl-CoA desaturase Mammals cannot incorporate a double bond beyond 9; plants can. Mammals can synthesize long chain unsaturated fatty acids using desaturation and elongation

  19. Rule: 2 2 3 1 The Desaturase System requires O2 and resembles an electron transport system Cyt b5 reductase NADH Cyt b5 O2 (FAD) Saturated FA-CoA NOTE: 1. System is in ER membrane 2. Both NADH and the fatty acid contribute electrons 3. Fatty acyl desaturase is considered a mixed function oxidase
