  1. Chapter 24Lipids

  2. Lipids • Lipids are naturally occurring substances grouped together on the basis of a common property—they are more soluble in nonpolar solvents than in water. • Some of the most important of them—the ones in this chapter—are related in that they have acetic acid (acetate) as their biosynthetic origin. • In many biosynthetic pathways a substance called acetyl coenzyme A serves as the source of acetate.

  21. 24.3Fatty Acid Biosynthesis

  22. Fatty Acid Biosynthesis • Fatty acids are biosynthesized via acetyl coenzyme A. • The group of enzymes involved in the overall process is called fatty acid synthetase. • One of the key components of fatty acid synthetase is acyl carrier protein (ACP—SH).

  23. O O CH3CSCoA CH3CS—ACP + HSCoA Fatty Acid Biosynthesis • An early step in fatty acid biosynthesis is the reaction of acyl carrier protein with acetyl coenzyme A. + HS—ACP

  24. O O O – – HCO3 CH3CSCoA OCCH2CSCoA Fatty Acid Biosynthesis • A second molecule of acetyl coenzyme A reacts at its  carbon atom with carbon dioxide (as HCO3–) to give malonyl coenzyme A. + Acetylcoenzyme A Malonylcoenzyme A

  25. O O O O ACP—SH – – OCCH2CS—ACP OCCH2CSCoA Fatty Acid Biosynthesis • Malonyl coenzyme A then reacts with acyl carrier protein. Malonylcoenzyme A
