Fatty acid synthesis • Lipogenesis • Not a reversal of degradation
Fatty acid synthesis • In • Liver • Adipose tissue • Lactating mammalian gland Ac-CoA è palmitic acid
Comitted Step in Fatty Acid Synthesis • Acetyl-CoA carboxylase • ACC • Biotin – prostetic group
v Comitted Step in Fatty Acid Synthesis
Regulation of Ac-CoA carboxylase Long term adaptation to a carbohydrate rich (lipid-free) diet èThe amout of the enzyme is increased
Fatty acid synthase • Multienzyme compex • dimer of two identical subunists • each with three domains
Fatty acid synthase • Attachment of Ac-CoA to acetyl transferase (AT) (CH3-CO-O-Serine) • Malonyl group to malonyl transferase (MT) • Acetyl unit is transferred to SH – condensing enzyme (CE)
Fatty acid synthase • Malonyl unit is transferred to SH-condensing enyzyme (CE) • Condensation acetoacetyl group on ACP SH-CE restored
Fatty acid synthase • Acetoacetyl group is delivered to domain 2 of the opposite chain to reduction by ß-ketoacyl reductase (KR) dehydratase (DH) enoyl reductase (ER)
Fatty acid synthase • Butyryl unit migrates from SH-ACP to SH-CE • next malonyl group to MT then SH-ACP • Next round • After seven round palmitate is released by thioesterase (TE) of D3
Control of fatty acid synthesis Short term regulation • Ac-CoA á • ATP á .â isocitrate dehydrogenase inhibited citrateá – stimulates Ac-CoA carboxlase Indicates, thea two-carbon units & ATP are available for synthesis
Control of fatty acid synthesis Palmitoyl-CoA Inhibits Ac-COA carboxylase Inhibits translocation of citrate from mitochondria to cytosol Inhibits glucose 6-P dehydrogenase è NADPH â
Control of fatty acid synthesis Glucagon • cAMP áè activation of protein kinases è phosphorylation of Ac-CoA carboxylase è switch off • Long term ~ • – low fat – high carbohxdrate diet • the amount if Acetyl-CoA carboxylase & • fatty acid synthase increased • è ADAPTIVE CONTROL

Sources of NADPH for fatty acid synthesis For each Ac-CoA that is transferred from the mitochondria to the cytosol one NADP+ is generated (8 NADPH is formed when 8 molecules of Ac-COA are transferred) The additional six NADPH come from pentose phosphate pathway
