Biochem Exam III

Chapter 15 Terms

TermDefinition
Mouth Fats and Amino Acids do not get broken down in the mouth, only carbs
Stomach Where digestion of fats begins by LINGUAL LIPASE (only works on short chain FA)
Pancreas PANCREATIC LIPASE: breaks C1 and C3 bonds of TAG --> DAG and 2 FA. CHOLESTEROL ESTERASE PHOSPHOLIPASE 2 CYSTIC FIBROSIS: clogs pancreatic ducts and leads to decrease pancreatic enzymes, thus issue w fat metabilism
Pancreatic Lipase digestive enzyme found in the pancreas that secreted into SI; breakdown TAG into 2 monoacylglycerol and 2 fatty acids (cleaves C1 and C3)
2 monoacylglycerol byproduct of the breakdown on TAG by pancreatic lipase (also produces 2 FA)
Cholesterol Esterase lipid digestion that breaksdown cholesterol and its ester (FA)
Phospholipase A2 cleaves phospholipase at C2 to form lysophospholipids; also cleaves arachadonic acid during synthesis of prostaglandins, inhibited by cortisol
Orlistat (xenical) Anti-obesity drug that inhibits gastric and pancreatic lipases (decreases their absorption)
Oxaloacetate Citrate --> Acetyl CoA by ATP CITRATE LYASE realease OAA during FA synthesis
Intestine degradation of dietary proteins occurs in the SI. Chylomicrons are formed in the SI, emulsification of lipids occurs in the SI
Micelles soluble balls of fat that are created in order to bring gat to the intestinal lining of the SI (enterocytes) in order for fat to be re-absorbed, NOT ABSORBED
Intestinal Epithelial Cells "Enterocytes" where fats are absorbed; fat combine into soluble mixed micelles that can appraoch the brush border of the enterocytes to be absorbed. Chylomicrons are assembled in the intestinal mucosal cells
Fatty Acyl CoA FA are only activated when they are bound to a CoA
Fatty Acyl CoA Synthetase enzyme that converts FA into activated fiorm by adding CoA so that they can be resynthesized into TAG, etc.
Free Fatty Acids FA that are not bound to CoA and usually are found bound to ALBUMIN
Generation of Palmitate from Glucose ingest glucose, it is converted into pyruvate in the TCA cycle--> Acetyl CoA and then citrate, Citrate is moved out of mito and converted into acetyl Coa by ATP citrate lyase (uses E and generates an OAA). Acetyl CoA --> Malonyl CoA by Acetyl CoA carboxy
Generation of TAGS FA are activated by Fatty Acyl CoA Synthetase and TAG is resynthesized from glycerol 2 phosphate and Fatty Acyl CoAs; 2 FAs are then added, phosphate head removed, then 3rd FA is added
Glycerol product of TAGS; glycerol usually goes to the liver where it is recycled into either Glycerol 3 phosphate or DHAP to go back into glycolysis or gluconeogenesis. it also is the backbone of glycerophospholipids and glycolipids
Glycerol 3 Phosphate Hepatic glycerol kinase takes the glycerol that is a byproduct of TAG and converts it in glycerol 3 ph in the liver to allow it to go back into glycolysis or gluconeogenesis. Glycerol 3 ph is also the backbone to resynthesize TAG
Glycerol Kinase Hepatic glycerol kinase that the glycerol that is a byproduct of TAG and converts it into glycerol 3 ph in the liver to allow it to go back into glycolysis or gluconeogenesis
HMG CoA Lyase HMG CoA --> Acetoacetate (which can be reduced to 3 hydroxybutarate); step in KB synthesis that releases an acetyl CoA to produce a KB
HMG CoA Reductase HMG CoA --> Mevalonate in cholesterol synthesis. This is the rate limiting, committed step of synthesis. It requires 2 NAPDH and releases a CoA. This ocurs on the cytosol and enxyme is an integral membrane protein of ER
Phosphatase enzyme that dephosphorylates a protein. HMG CoA Reductase is active when its phosphatase it on
HMG CoA Reductase Regulation gene expression, sterol concentration, + insulin and thyroxine, protein phospahatase. - AMP, SREBP - SCAP
HMG CoA Synthse Acetyl co--> HMG CoA occurs in cytosol and its 1st step in cholesterol and KB synthesis. Combines the 3rd acetyl CoA with Acetoacetyl CoA
Intestinal Lumen Bile Salts are secreted into the intestinal lumen
Intestine Degredation of dietary proteins occurs in the SI; Chylomicrons are fomred in the SI, emulsification of lipids occurs in the SI
Lipoprotein Lipase enzyme during fat digestion that breaks down TAG intno 3 FA and glycerol (Cleaves all Cs) it is found in adipocytes and skeletal and muscle cells. Lipiprotein lipase is activated by Apo C/II (VLDL, chylomicrons) to break down TAG

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
