    What are lipids?


    • Phospholipid
    • Phospholipid structures
    • Membrane fluidity based on lipid Structure
    • More unsaturation implies more space –
    greater fluidity
    • Glycolipid
    • Fatty Acids

    (E)-4-oxohexadec-2-enoic acid
    Lipid hydrolysis
    Reactions of fatty acids
    Fatty acid biosynthesis
    Flavin system
    • Acetyl CoA
    Fatty acid oxidation
    Enzymatic fat hydrolysis by pancreatic lipase –
    Catalytic Triad
    Prostaglandins
    • physiologically active lipid compounds

    • diverse hormone-like effects in animals

    • found in almost every tissue in humans


    • derived enzymatically from fatty acids
