  1. Chapter 26Lipids

  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.

  19. 26.3Fatty Acid Biosynthesis

  20. 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).

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

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

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

  24. O O O CH2CS—ACP CH3C O O – •• CH2CS—ACP O C •• •• Fatty Acid Biosynthesis • Malonyl—ACP and acetyl—ACP react by carbon-carbon bond formation, accompanied by decarboxylation. S—ACP CH3C S-Acetoacetyl—ACP

  25. O O OH O CH2CS—ACP CH2CS—ACP CH3C CH3C H Fatty Acid Biosynthesis • In the next step, the ketone carbonyl is reduced to a secondary alcohol. NADPH S-Acetoacetyl—ACP

  26. O O OH CH2CS—ACP CHCS—ACP CH3CH CH3C H Fatty Acid Biosynthesis • The alcohol then dehydrates.

  27. O O CH3CH2CH2CS—ACP CHCS—ACP CH3CH Fatty Acid Biosynthesis Reduction of the double bond yieldsACP bearing an attached butanoyl group. • Repeating the process gives a 6-carbon acyl group, then an 8-carbon one, then 10, etc.

  28. 26.4Phospholipids

  29. Phospholipids • Phospholipids are intermediates in the biosynthesis of triacylglycerols. • The starting materials are L-glycerol 3-phosphate and the appropriate acyl coenzyme A molecules.

  37. Cell Membranes water • Cell membranes are "lipid bilayers." Each layer has an assembly of phosphatidyl choline molecules as its main structural component. water

  38. Cell Membranes water • The interior of the cell membrane is hydrocarbon-like. Polar materials cannot pass from one side to the other of the membrane. water

  39. 26.5Waxes

  40. Waxes • Waxes are water-repelling solids that coat the leaves of plants, etc. • Structurally, waxes are mixtures of esters. The esters are derived from fatty acids and long-chain alcohols.
