o
Free w/ albumin
OXIDATION (1ST)
Oxidation of FA by Acyl CoA Dehydrogenase
Forms a double bond between C2 & C3
Produces FADH2 from FAD
LIPOPROTEIN LIPASE – enzyme
FREE FATTY ACIDS – virtually all cells can use Fatty Energy except Brain, RBC & Medulla BETA OXIDATION •
Major pathway for catabolism of FA
•
2 carbon fragments are cleaved producing Acetyl CoA (enters Kreb’s Cycle)
o
HYDRATION
o
OXIDATION (2ND)
STEPS:
Hydroxyacyl CoA oxidized by NAD+
Became 3-Ketoacyl CoA
Forms NADH
1. TRANSPORT OF FA INTO MITOCHONDRIA •
After FA are taken up by a cell, it is converted to a CoA derivative (fatty acylCoA) o
•
Fatty aclyCoA synthetase/thiokinase
•
Transport to mitochondria
THIOLYTIC CLEAVAGE (THIOLYSIS)
*Mitochondrial membrane is impermeable
Cleavage of 3-Ketoacyl CoA by thiol group of another CoA
Produces shorter Acyl CoA and Acetyl CoA
CARNITINE SHUTTLE •
Acyl group must first be transferred Cytosolic CoA to Carnitine
•
Catalyzed by Carnitine Acyltransferase I
•
Forming Fatty Acyl Carnitine I & II
•
Inhibited by: MALONYL CoA
CARNITINE ACYLTRANSFERASE I – located in the OUTER MITOCHONDRIAL MEMBRANE
Add H2O
ENERGY YIELD FROM BETA OXIDATION •
•
Each time an acetyl group (2 carbons) is cleaved from acyl chain, it produces: o
1 NADH
o
1 Acetyl CoA
o
1 FADH2
Therefore:
*Carnitine is not needed inside the mitochondria because it is only a shuttle
o
PALMITATE (16:0) 16/2 = 8 – 1 = 7cycles
* Fats yield high energy •

FATE OF GLYCEROL
•
Succinyl CoA – can enter Kreb’s Cycle
•
Glycerol cannot be metabolized by adipocytes
•
COMPUTATION:
•
Lacks GLYCEROL KINASE transport to liver
•
Phosphorylated or converted to DHAP

RELATIONSHIP OF GLUCOSE METABOLISM & PAMITATE SYNTHESIS:
FA = Acetyl CoA + ATP + NADPH

3. Acetyl CoA – mitochondria
o

4. Citrate 5. Carbons of Cytosolic Acetyl CoA
LONG TERM o
