can
anyone explain the diffence between bacterial Fatty acid synthesis
and eukaryotic fatty acid synthesis as in how they differ I have
been trying to find it everywhere i cant
Liver fatty acid synthesis is stimulated by glucose. In which of
the following ways does the reaction of glucose not stimulate the
synthesis of acyl-CoA in the liver?
a. The reaction of glucose contributes NADPH to the fatty acid
synthesis.
b. The turnover of glucose contributes with ATP to fatty acid
synthesis.
c. The reaction of glucose contributes with citrate to transport
acetyl-CoA to the fatty acid synthesis.
d. The reaction of glucose contributes with acetyl-CoA to the
fatty acid...
Acetyl-CoA carboxylase is an enzyme in fatty acid synthesis. In
response to increasing fatty acid levels, ACC activity
increases and the number of R form subunits increase,
decreases and the number of T form subunits increase, increases and
the number of R form subunits decrease, or decreases and the number
of T form subunits decrease.
1- Fatty acyl CoA synthetase catalyses the 2-step fatty
acid activation prior to fatty acid synthesis.
True
False
2- Individuals with defects in ammonia clearance tend to
suffer neurological problems due to influx of calcium ions into the
brain.
True
False
3-Maple syrup disease is largely cause by a defect in
the biosynthesis of branched-chain amino acids such as
isoleucine.
True
False
4- Uridylylation of PII stimulates the formation of
glutamine from glutamate.
True
False
5- Which of the following...
there is a mutation in a gene impairing fatty acid synthesis. what
enzyme is most likely being affected? how will a defect in fatty
acid synthesis affect embryonic development, if at all?!
What is the role of decarboxylation in fatty acid synthesis?
Name another reaction in a different
metabolic pathway that employs this mechanistic motif.
I know the role is to drive the condensation reaction but I'm
stuck on finding another example.
Under what nutritional conditions is fatty acid synthesis likely
to occur? Discuss the roles of acetyl CoA and malonyl CoA in the
synthesis of fatty acids
