64
Q

Degradation of Odd Chain Fatty Acids Yields what molecule?

66
Q

Though most fatty acid oxidation occurs in mitochondria, the oxidation of specialized lipids, including very long chain fatty acids (typically more than 22 carbons), methyl-branched fatty acids, and eicosanoids occurs in?

A

peroxisomes

67
Q

For degradation of fatty acids in the peroxisomes it occurs the same but what is different?

A

only when fat and carbohydrate breakdown are balanced

71
Q

the oxidation of Acetyl-CoA through the TCA cycle is dependent upon the availability

A

OAA

72
Q

When carbohydrates are unavailable (or utilized improperly, as in diabetes), mitochondrial levels of OAA drop and acetyl-CoA cannot or can proceed?

A

cannot proceed

73
Q

When carbohydrates are unavailable (or utilized improperly, as in diabetes), mitochondrial levels of OAA drop, and acetyl-CoA cannot proceed, these conditions favor gluconeogenesis. Where does the excess acetyl CoA diverted to?

A

production of ketone bodies in the liver.

74
Q

As is typically seen in mammals in starved state or uncontrolled diabetics, acetyl-CoA can be converted into acetoacetate in three enzymatic steps. Acetoacetate can then be transformed into either?

A

D- 3-hydroxybutyrate
and/or
acetone

75
Q

How does the final product D- 3-hydroxybutyrate form

A

forms by the NADH-dependent reduction of acetoacetate

76
Q

acetone results from what

A

the slow, non-enzymatic decarboxylation of acetoacetate

77
Q

Utilization of ketone bodies as metabolic fuels essentially involves the reverse chemistry as in their formation. Acetoacetate is converted into acetyl-CoA in two enzymatic steps. list these steps in correct order

A
  1. Acetoacetate is activated to acetoacetyl-CoA by transferring the CoA group from succinyl-CoA via a specific CoA transferase enzyme.
  2. Acetoacetyl-CoA is then cleaved by CoA and thiolase to form two molecules of acetyl-CoA
77
Q

The major site of ketogenesis

A

liver

78
Q

Recall that glucose is the preferred fuel molecule for the brain and red blood cells in healthy, fed people. However, during starvation and diabetic states, the brain can meet up to 75% of its energy requirement through?

A

ketone bodies

79
Q

High blood concentrations of ketone bodies are seen in certain pathological conditions, such as diabetic ketosis. This is because ?

A

acidic nature of ketone bodies can drop blood pH to dangerously low levels.

80
Q

Type-I diabetics do not produce insulin, which signals to take up additional blood glucose AND to stop lipolysis by adipose tissue what are the effects?

A

TCA cycle slows and ketones accumulate. Continued triacylglycerol breakdown by adipose tissue results in further ketogenesis by the liver. As blood ketone levels rise, blood pH drops.

81
Q

An important biochemical limitation of mammals is ?

A

they are unable to affect the net synthesis of glucose from fatty acids

82
Q

Fatty Acid synthesis takes place in three stages.

A
  1. The first stage of fatty acid synthesis is transfer of acetyl CoA out of the mitochondria into the cytoplasm. Citrate is transported into the cytoplasm and cleaved into oxaloacetate and acetyl CoA.
  2. The second stage is the activation of acetyl CoA to form malonyl CoA.
  3. The third stage is the repetitive addition and reduction of two carbon units to synthesize C16 fatty acid. Synthesis occurs on an acyl carrier protein
83
Q

What occurs in stage one of fatty acid synthesis?

A
  1. Citrate, synthesized in the mitochondria from acetyl-CoA, is transported to the cytoplasm and cleaved by ATP-citrate lyase to generate acetyl CoA for fatty acid synthesis.
  2. OAA must be returned to the mitochondrion
84
Q

How does OAA return to the mitochondrion when in fatty acid synthesis?

A
  1. OAA is reduced to malate by NADH. This reaction is catalyzed by a cytoplasmic isoform of malate
    dehydrogenase
  2. The malate product is oxidatively decarboxylated by NADP+ in a reaction catalyzed by malic enzyme
  3. The pyruvate formed by malic enzyme can be carboxylated to OAA by pyruvate carboxylase
85
Q

By completing the citrate/pyruvate shuttle system , how many molecules of NADPH is generated for each acetyl-CoA transferred to the cytoplasm?

A

one molecule of NADPH is generated

86
Q

To synthesize palmitate, for example, 8 acetyl-CoA and 14 NAPDH are required. This means that 6 additional NADPH must be generated elsewhere, where?

A

These additional NADPH are generated by the cytoplasmic pentose phosphate shunt, which yields NADPH by oxidizing glucose in a manner that does not yield pyruvate.

87
Q

what is the committed step in fatty acid synthesis?

A

The formation of malonyl -CoA

88
Q

Once acetyl CoA is synthesized by citrate what enzyme to form what product?

A

catalyzed acetyl- CoA carboxylase w/ ATP hydrolysis to form Malonyl CoA

89
Q

Intermediates in Fatty Acid Synthesis are Covalently Coupled to what protein?

A

coupled with ACP

90
Q

Where are the growing chains in fatty acid synthesis link to ?

A

sulfhydryl terminus of phosphopantetheinic acid-derivative of the acyl-carrier protein (ACP).

91
Q

How does the acyl phase begin and what enzymes catalyze the reactions?

A

beings with the formation of acetyl-ACP and malonyl-ACP through the functions of acetyl transacylase and malonyl transacylase

92
Q

Stage 3 of fatty acid synthesis consists of a series of condensation, reduction, dehydration, and reduction rxn’s. What occurs in the first step?

A

In the first step, acetyl-ACP and malonyl-ACP are condensed to form acetoacetyl-ACP. This reaction is catalyzed by an acyl-malonyl ACP condensing enzyme.

93
Q

The last three steps of fatty acid synthesis consist of what ?

A
  1. convert the keto group at carbon 3 to a methylene group (-CH2-), forming butyryl ACP.
    NADPH is the source of reducing power.
94
Q

The last three reaction in fatty acid synthesis are :

A
  1. β-ketoacyl ACP reductase-> D-3-hydroxbutyryl
  2. 3- hydroxylacyl ACP dehydratase->crontonyl ACP
    3.Enoyl ACP reductase ->butyryl ACP
95
Q

butyryl ACP continues the fatty acid synthesis process up until it reaches 16 carbon acyl-acp, what is significant about this chain?

A

This C16-acyl-ACP is a good substrate for a thioesterase enzyme, which hydrolyzes the C16-acyl-ACP into palmitate and ACP

96
Q

How does thioesterase act as a ruler?

A

acts as a ruler to determine fatty acid chain length.
Because of this thioesterase, fatty acid chains longer than C16 must be synthesized through a different mechanism

97
Q

The Distinctions Between Bacterial and Mammalian Fatty Acid Synthesis are Mostly Structural, how did we figure this ?

A

Much of our understanding of fatty acid synthesis comes from the study of bacterial systems, While the structures of bacterial and mammalian synthases are quite different, the series of chemical reactions is very much the same.

98
Q

When talking about distinctions between bacterial and mammalian fatty acid synthesis we know they have similar chemical reaction but how do they differ sturcturaly?

A
  1. fatty acids synthase exists as a dimer of identical 272-kDa subunits that each contain all 7 catalytic sites required to form and release a C16 fatty acid chain.
  2. it is more stable and catalytically efficient
99
Q

Are fatty acids synthesized/degraded by the same pathways true or false?

A

False

100
Q

where does synthesis take place?

A

cytoplasm

101
Q

For the synthetic intermediates they are linked with CoA? t or false

A

they are link with ACP

102
Q

The synthetic enzymes are all distinctly by themselves t or f

A

false- they are apart of alarge, single polypeptide chain called the fatty acid synthase (FAS)

103
Q

The reductant in fatty acid synthesis is FADH T or F?

A

false NADPH

104
Q

The Elongation and Unsaturation of Fatty Acids are Accomplished by?

A

Accessory Enzyme Systems

105
Q

In eukaryotes longer chain fatty acids are formed by what process?

A

elongation reactions that occur on the cytoplasmic face of the endoplasmic reticulum membrane

106
Q

ER-localized systems are also used to introduce unsaturation into newly formed fatty acid chains through what process?

A

a series of membrane-bound oxidase enzymes act on saturated fatty acyl-CoAs; they use O2 as an oxidant

107
Q

Mammals lack the enzymes required to introduce double bonds at positions beyond the C9 carbon of the fatty acid chain. Because of this, mammals cannot synthesize linoleate or linoleate. This gives them the results of?

A

linoleate and linolenate are denoted “essential fatty acids”. This signifies that they must be supplied in the diet

108
Q

How does acetyl CoA carboxylase play a key role in controlling fatty acid metabolism?

A

AMP-activated protein kinase A (AMPK) is activated by high levels of AMP and inhibits carboxylase. Fats are not synthesized when energy is required.

109
Q

How can hormones control the activity of acetyl-CoA carboxylase?

A
  1. catabolic hormones glucagon and epinephrine activate protein kinase A, which phosphorylates and inhibits acetyl-CoA carboxylase
110
Q

How can the hormone insulin control the activity of acetyl-CoA carboxylase?

A

insulin activates synthesis by enhancing the phosphorylation of AMPK by protein kinase B, which inhibits AMPK, as well as by stimulating the activity of a protein phosphatase that dephosphorylates and activates acetyl-CoA carboxylase

111
Q

What is insulins response to glucose levels in regards to fatty acid synthesis?

A

Insulin will then facilitate synthesis by increasing glucose uptake, thus favoring glucose-6-phosphate synthesis which leads to increased acetyl-CoA (after glycolysis) and NADPH (via the pentose phosphate pathway). Insulin also activates citrate lyase.

112
Q

Acetyl-CoA can only be controlled by the hormones True or false ?

A

wrong- can also be controlled by allosteric effectors like citrate and MIG12

113
Q

citrate mitigates inhibition due to phosphorylation to what enzyme of process?

A

Acetyl- CoA carboxylase in fatty acid synthesis

114
Q

What occurs to the activity of acetyl-CoA carboxylase when it dephosphoylated?

A

Its activity levels are elevated

115
Q

what end product of fatty acid synthase, inhibits the carboxylase by causing depolymerization

A

Palmitoyl CoA

116
Q

How does acetyl-CoA carboxylase regulate fatty acid degradation?

A

malonyl-CoA, inhibits carnitine acyl-transferase I, and prevents further fatty acid oxidation inside mitochondria when fuel molecules are abundant aka no transport no degradation

117
Q

How can the excess production of NADH from ethanol processing lead to inhibition of fatty acid degradation in the liver?

A

Excess NADH also inhibits fatty acid degradation and stimulates fatty acid synthesis, leading to the accumulation of fats in the liver

118
Q

when there is a build-up of acetyl CoA it can lead to ketone body secretion into liver what occur because of this?

A

acidosis caused by lactate accumulation.

119
Q

If acetate cannot be process what is the consequence of this?

A

acetaldehyde accumulates- Acetaldehyde is very reactive and modifies reactive groups of proteins, causing a loss of protein function. As protein damage accumulates, liver function can fail.
