2. Objectives Know the common names and structures of thefollowing fatty acids: C16, C16:1 C18, C18:1, C18:2, C18:3 C20:4 Understand the relationship between fatty acid chainlength, unsaturation and melting point. Recognize a TAG, MAG, and DAG (triacylglycerol,monoacylglycerol, diacylglycerol). Recognize a phospholipid. You will not need to beable to differentiate among the different kinds ofphospholipids. 3. What are the sites of action and products of thephospholipases A1, A2, C, and D? Define amphipathic (amphiphilic means the samething) (see textbook). What are the main lipid components of the averagediet? Understand how the actions of pancreatic lipase,phospholipase and bile acids (same as bile salts forour purpose) contribute to the digestion andabsorption of lipid. What happens to the absorbed products of dietarylipid inside the intestinal cell? Know the basiccomposition of chylomicrons. Why is a special, complicated mechanism oftransporting TAGs and cholesterol in the bloodnecessary? What is this mechanism? 4. Major Macromolecules Carbohydrates Proteins Nucleic Acids Lipids 5.

Most Important Lipids:My Choice Fatty Acids oxidized for energy building blocks for TAGS and PL precursors to hormones - Eicosenoids Triacylglycerols - TAGS storage form of fatty acids which are used forenergy Phospholipids PLs For membranes Cholesterol 7.

Triacylglycerols: a Family withMany MembersNote these are very hydrophobic!!!More so than the fatty acids fromwhich they are madeEnergy Storage 11.

Fig 9.9 Phospholipases hydrolyzephospholipids PLase A1 or A2 gives a lysophospholipid (lacking a fatty acid) PLase C gives a diacylglycerol PLase D gives a phosphatidate 13. Other Classes of Lipids Lipids Important in Membrane Structure Sphingolipids (Fatty acids andCarbohydrates) Steroids, especially cholesterol Specialized functions Waxes Prostaglandins 14. Lipid MetabolismChapter 16 15.

Composition of Lipid in the Diet90% TAGsPLsCholesterol 17. Digestion and Absorption ofDietary LipidsWe have a problem. Think oil and water or cutting a cow froma herdHow do we get from large fat globulesto small molecules which can beabsorbed across the intestinal cell? 18. Break the hydrophobic TAGs down to amonoacylglycerol + 2 fatty acidsBreak Phospholipids down tolysophospholipid and a fatty acidCoat the particles with amphipathicmolecules (bile salts or bile acids) to makemicelles hydrophobic part meshes with the lipid hydrophilic part presents to the watercompartment 19. Fig 16.2 Action of pancreaticlipase 20. Fig 16.3 Dietary phospholipids aredegraded by phospholipases 21. Fig 16.1 Bile salts are amphipathic derivatives ofcholesterol and amino acids. Taurocholate and glycocholate (cholesterol derivatives) are themost abundant bile salts Amphipathic: hydrophilic (blue), hydrophobic (black)Synthesized in LiverStored in gall bladderSecreted into intestineForms micelles 22.

In the Intestinal Cellmonoacylglycerol + 2 fatty acids-->TAGscholesterol + fatty acid --> cholesterolesterlysophospholipid + fatty acid --> PLapolipoprotein BAnd we have a special kind oflipoprotein called a chylomicron totransport lipids around the body 24. Why Do We Need LipoproteinParticles to Transport Lipid?Solubility of cholesterol as an example of functionalimportance of lipoprotein particles.0.2 mg/dL in water at 250.150 200 mg/dL in plasma30% free70% esterifiedIn Bile: Bile salts and phosphatidyl- cholinemaintain cholesterol in solution.390 mg/d: in bile96% free4% esterified 25.
