AcSoA is a thioester. R=, oas R= acetyl, AcSoA R S P P P Pyruvate dehydrogenase: Multi-enzyme complex that converts pyruvate to AcSoA. 2 2 oas 2 P P 2 pyruvate AD thiamin diphosphate (vitamin B 1 ) Lipoic Acid Flavin adenine diphosphate (VitaminB 2 ) S-oA 2 P P 2 2 AcSoA AD

S-oA u- u oas S-oA ( 3 ) 3 choline choline acetyltransferase Thioester enolize more readily than esters. The enol can react with electrophile to afford α-substitution products acetylcholine ( 3 ) 3 oas S-oA S-oA E E S-oA acetyl-oa carboxylase S-oA 3 biotin, ATP S-oA Malonyl oa : Fats, ils, and Fatty Acids. Fatty acids: refers to long, straight-chain saturated and unsaturated acids, typically from (Table 26.1, p. 1069). saturated fatty acids: 3 ( 2 ) n 2 n=10, lauric acid ( 12 ) n=12, myristic acid ( 14 ) n=14, palmitic acid ( 16 ) n=16, steric acid ( 18 ) unsaturated fatty acid 2 18, oleic acid 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) , linolenic acid (18:3) 18, linoleic acid (18:4) 20, arachidonic acid (20:4)

3 Fats and ils: Triglycerides (triaceylglycerols) are tri-esters of glycerol (1,2,3-trihydroxypropane) and fatty acids. glycerol fatty acids R 1 R 2 R 3 The R groups can be saturated or unsaturated, the same or different 2 2 R 1 R 2 R 3 when some of the R groups are unsaturated 2, catalyst 2 2 R 1 R 2 R 3 Partially hydrogenated: some cis double bond are isomerized to trans double bonds 2, catalyst 2 2 R 1 R 2 R 3 ydrogenated- only saturated fatty acids 284 Soaps: sodium & potassium salts of fatty acid produced from the saponification (base hydrolysis) of animal fats (glycerides) 2 2 R n R n R n a 3 R n a 2 2 Soaps have a hydrophilic, polar head group (carboxylate salt) and a hydrophobic, non-polar tail. Fatty acid amides (FAA): Anandamide an ethanolamine amide of arachidonic Acid ( 20 ) tetrahydrocannabinol

4 26.3: Fatty Acid Biosynthesis. Fatty acid biosynthesis is performed by a cluster of discrete enzymes in bacteria, and a very large multi-protein assembly in animals (fatty acid synthase, FAS). The fatty acid is attached to an acyl carrier protein (AP), while other proteins perform an iterative two-carbon chain extension reaction that will yield the fatty acid. 2 S P P R S R AcS-oA P ysteine of Ketosynthase (KS) oa-s R S R AcS-KS 286 FAS chain extension reaction: Ketosynthase (KR) S-oA Malonyl oa S Phosphopantetheine P Serine of AP oa-s - 2 KS-S KS-S
