in B-oxidation of fatty acids, what are utilized as coenzymes

23
Q

the most important sources of reducing equivalents for FA synthesis in the liver is

24
Q

as a result of each oxidation a long chain fatty acid is cleaved to give

A

an acid with Z-carbon less & acetyl CoA

25
committed step in the biosynthesis of cholesterol from acetyl CoA is
formation of mevalinate from HMG CoA
26
Acyl carrier protein is involved in the synthesis of
fatty acid outside the mitochondria
27
ligated triacyglycerols are emulsified in the intestine by
bile salts
28
the key enzyme in the regulation of fatty acid synthesis is
Acetyl-CoA carboxylase
29
in the intestine, the dietary fat are hydrolized by
pancreatic lipase
30
chain elongation of fatty acids occurring in mammalian liver takes place in which of the following subcellular fractions of the cell
microsomes
31
B-oxidation of odd-carbon fatty acid chain produces
propionyl CoA
32
long chain fatty acids enters mitochondria by
combing with carrier carnite
33
HMG-CoA reductase is rate limiting enzyme of
cholesterol synthesis
34
ketone bodies is synthesized from
Acetyl-Coa
35
during starvation ketone bodies are synthesized in
Liver
36
low carb diet with bad breath is due to
increased beta oxidization due to increased activity of hormone sensitive lipase with subsequent increased in ketone bodies in plasma
37
the reducing equivalents necessary for fatty acid synthesis are produced during the conversion of
glucose-6-phosphate to ribose-5-phosphate
38
TRUE of fatty acid synthase enzyme complex
The monomers are arranged in a head to tail configuration
39
The phosphopanthetheine side chain is part of which sub-unit of fatty acid synthase enzyme complex
acyl carrier protein
40

malonyl-coA
41
The complete ATP yield of a saturated C16 FA is
106
42
Condition that accelerates ketogenesis
decreased insulin/glucagon ratio
43

Refsums disease
45
TRUE regarding apo-proteins
Apo D is present exclusively in HDL
