  1. The Department of Biochemistry of Medical Faculty Presents now ELONGATION, DESATURATION of FATTY ACIDS and FORMATION of ACTIVE MOLECULES Edited by Attila Sandor

  2. Mechanism of fatty acid elongation in animal cells CH3-(CH2)14-CO-SCoA + OOC-CH2-CO-SCoA acyl-CoA malonyl-acyl-CoA CO2 Elongation system located in the ER HSCoA CH3-(CH2)14-CO-CH2-CO-SCoA 2 NADPH2 H2O Reduced to saturated C18 stearic acid via three basic ezymes of fatty acid synthesis Fatty acids are elongated on the head Elongation system acts on CoA esters rather than on ACP-esters Elongation system also uses malonyl-CoA as acceptor Authors`picture

  3. Mechanism of fatty acid desaruration in animal cells O-O 4- Belongs to the “mixed- function oxidases”, that is, oxidases two substrate at the same time Acts on CoA esters in the ER togethe with the Cyt b5 reductase Intoduces duoble bonds before the 9th carbon atomin cis position Lehn.,4th ed. 21-13 p. 799

  4. Action of plant desaturases The plant desaturases enzymes act on fatty acid chains in phosholipids rather than on CoA esters and introduce double bounds before and after the 9th carbon atom. Lehn.,4th ed. 21-14 p. 800

  5. Formation of the most important fatty acids via combination of elongation and desaturation animals can put double bond only before the 9th C atom advantage of the w system: after elongation the numbering does not turn upside down w 6,9,12 w 6,9,12 w 6,9,12,15 Lehn.,4th ed. 21-12 p. 797

  6. a Strayer 3rd edition,20-19, p.490

  7. CONCLUDING REMARKS The overall equation of the synthesis of a palmitic acid : 7malonylCoA + 1AcCoA + 14 NADPH2 CH3-(CH2)14–COOH + 7 CO2 + 14NADP+ +6H2O + 8CoA • The fatty acids are elongated at the head by C2 untits • thus, the most fatty acids are even numbered. • The cytosolic fatty acid synthase enzyme synthetises • only palmitic acid. • The longer and/or unsaturated fatty acids are formed by • different microsomal enzymes • The odd-numbered fatty acids are synthtised when AT accepts • proponyl-CoA by mistake

  8. Spliting sites of phospholipases Lehn.,4th ed.10-15 p. 355

  9. Source of arachidonic acid Arachidonic acid (20:4, w 6,9,12,15) is the parenthal compound of many biologically active fatty acid derivatives. It is located in membrane phosholipids and released by phosholipase A2. Steroids Lehn.,4th ed. 10-18 p. 358

  10. Biologically active derivatives of arachidonic acid Anti-inflamatory drugs inhibit: Prostaglandins Steroids: Prostaglandins Tromboxans Leukotriens Non-steroids: Prostaglandins Tromboxans Steroids Tromboxans Aspirin Cyclooxygenase COX I,II Lipoxygenase Leukotriens Unknown author

  11. Lehn.,4th ed. p. 888 Steroids Steroids inhibit: Prostaglandins Tromboxans Leukotriens Non-steroids (aspirin) inhibit: Tromboxans Prostaglandins Non-steroids (aspirin) lipoxygenase Cyclooxygenane (COX I,II

  12. Mechanism of action of non-steroid (e.g.aspirin) anti-inflamatory drugs

  13. Lehn.,4th ed. 21-15/b p. 801

  14. Structure of Phosphatidic acid Lehn.,4th ed.10-8 p. 350

  15. Lehn.,4th ed.10-8 p. 350

  16. Spliting by phospholipase C Phosphatidyl-inositol 3 kinase P I 3 K (enzyme) Diacyl-glycerol, DAG Inositol 1,4,5, triphosphate IP3 Phosphatidyl-inositol 3,4,5 trisphosphate, PIP3 Two major roles of inositol-phosphates as second messengers Phosphatidylinositol 4,5 bisphosphate, PIP2 Author`s picture

  17. Actions of IP3 and DAG Lehn.,4th ed. 12-19, p. 443
