Sphingolipids Prof Mamoun Ahram Resources This lecture Lippincotts Biochemistry Ch 17 Structure of sphingolipids Synthesis of sphingomyelin Palmitoyl CoA condenses with serine releasing CoA and CO2. Lipids. Essential . macronutrients. Provide . energy. Building blocks for cell membranes. Form many important hormones. Help transport fat-soluble nutrients. Contribute to flavor and texture of . food. . 2003-2004. Lipids. 2003-2004. Large biomolecules that are made mostly of carbon and hydrogen with a small amount of oxygen (sometimes Phosphorous).. Lipids . Monomer subunits . Glycerol and 3 fatty acids. Lipids are relatively insoluble in water.. They are soluble in . nonpolar. solvents such as chloroform , diethyl ether, acetone, benzene and ether.. The hydrophobic (water hating) nature of lipids is due to the predominance of hydrocarbon chain.(-CH2-CH2-CH2-) in their structure. Dr. Huda Hania. Lipid chemistry . Lipid chemistry . Definition . Fats and Oils (triglyceride) . Waxes. Steroids. Fat- soluble vitamins. Phospholipid. Mono- di glycerides . Lipid compounds including: . Lipids are non-polar. (hydrophobic) . organic compounds, insoluble in water, . soluble in organic . solvents (ether, acetone, . carbontetrachloride. ). . They contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen; sometimes nitrogen and phosphorus. . Pratt & . Cornely. , . Ch. 8. Lipids and Membranes. There is a lot of important biochemistry of lipids.. We won’t cover it all!. The key points for this class have to do with their role in membranes and fat metabolism. We have touched on their metabolism.. Now we will wrap that up a bit by describing once you have digested carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins, what does your body do with it.. Metabolism. Metabolism:. Structures of fatty acids. Hydrogenation. Nomenclature. Essential fatty acids. Agenda. Functions. Long-term ___ storage. Support organs. Insulation. Fat soluble vitamins A, D, E, K. Types. Physical Property. nonpolar. organic compound insoluble in polar solvent , but . soluble in organic solvents. such as benzene ,ether, chloroform.. Biological role of lipids. :. Lipids are found naturally in all living organisms.. Metabolism . https. ://. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qjgEKqVkSo . Do all organisms have the same energy needs?. Chemical reactions are divided into what two . categories? . What are two ways organisms can obtain their energy?. Lipids are hydrophobic or amphipathic small molecules that may originate entirely or in part by carbanion-based condensations of thioesters (fatty acids, polyketides, etc.) and/or by carbocation-based condensations of isoprene units . What elements are Lipids composed of?. Carbon (C) . Hydrogen (H). Oxygen (O). A whole lot of Hydrogen!!!!!. Function in Living Organisms. Lipids usually serve one of three functions: . 1.
