Lipids • Lipids are naturally occurring substances grouped together on the basis of a common property—they are more soluble in nonpolar solvents than in water. • Some of the most important of them—the ones in this chapter—are related in that they have acetic acid (acetate) as their biosynthetic origin. • In many biosynthetic pathways a substance called acetyl coenzyme A serves as the source of acetate.

Fatty Acid Biosynthesis • Fatty acids are biosynthesized via acetyl coenzyme A. • The group of enzymes involved in the overall process is called fatty acid synthetase. • One of the key components of fatty acid synthetase is acyl carrier protein (ACP—SH).
