What are lipids?Lipids are chemically diverse groups of
compounds, the common and defining feature of which is their insolubility in water
Lipids are extracted from tissues with organic solvents such as ethyl ether, chloroform, and acetone.
Lipids are condensational product of alcohol and
and their derivatives216-07-2012

Fatty acidsFatty acids are carboxylic acids with
hydrocarbon chains ranging from 4-36 carbons long.
In some fatty acids, this chain is unbranched and fully saturated
In others, the chains can contain one or more double bonds
A few fatty acids contain 3 carbon rings, hydroxyl group, or methyl groups branches

Nomenclature of fatty acids
Number of double bondPosition of double bond
Carbon chain length
18:3 (Δ 9, 12, 15) The most commonly occurring fatty acids have
even number of carbon atoms in an unbrached chain of 12-24 carbons

Lipids are non-polar (hydrophobic) compounds, soluble in organic solvents.
Most membrane lipids are amphipathic, having a non-polar end and a polar end.
Fatty acids consist of a hydrocarbon chain with a carboxylic acid at one end.
A 16-C fatty acid: CH3(CH2)14-COO-
Non-polar polar
A 16-C fatty acid with one cis double bond between C atoms 9-10 may be represented as 16:1 cis 9.

General pattern of double bondsThe most common position for double bonds are
Δ9, Δ12, and Δ15The double bonds of poly saturated fatty
acids are separated by methyl group: -CH=CH-CH2-CH=CH-
In almost all naturally occurring unsaturated fatty acids, the double bonds are cis configuration. eg. N-dodecanoic acid, n-eicosanoic acid
(in Arachis oil)

Some fatty acids and their common names:14:0 myristic acid; 16:0 palmitic acid; 18:0 stearic acid; 18:1 cis9 oleic acid18:2 cis9,12 linoleic acid18:3 cis9,12,15 -linonenic acid 20:4 cis5,8,11,14 arachidonic acid20:5 cis5,8,11,14,17 eicosapentaenoic acid (an omega-3)

Double bonds in fatty acids usually have the cis configuration.

There is free rotation about C-C bonds in the fatty acid hydrocarbon, except where there is a double bond.
Each cis double bond causes a kink in the chain.
Rotation about other C-C bonds would permit a more linear structure than shown, but there would be a kink.

Physical properties of Fatty acidsThe physical properties of fatty acids are
largely determined by the length and degree of unsaturation of the hydrocarbon chain
The longer the chain and fewer the double bonds, the lower is the solubility in water, and higher the melting point
The lower fatty acid are liquid and higher fatty acids are solid at room temperature
Most of the fatty acids lighter than water

Classification of LipidsBased on their biological functions, lipids can
be classified into:Storage Lipid --- Principle stored form of
energy

Storage LipidsStorage lipids include fats and oils, and wax
Fats & oils are composed of three fatty acids each in ester linkage with a single glycerol (Triglycerols)
Waxes are ester of long-chain (C14-C36) saturated and unsaturated fatty acids with long-chain (C16-C30) alcohols

A. Fats & oils : These are fatty acids esters of the trihydric
alcohol, glycerol.
Are also known as triglycerides or triacylglycerols (TAG)
Glycerols + Fatty Acids ------------- TAG
Most of occurring TAG’s are mixed, which contain 2 or more different fatty acids. TAGs are nonpolar, hydrophobic molecules, essentially insoluble in water

B. WaxesWaxes are ester of long-chain (C14-C36)
saturated and unsaturated fatty acids with long-chain (C16-C30) alcohols.
In human body commonest waxes are esters of cholesterol
Three types are;True waxes- esters of higher fatty acids with
acetyl alcohol or other higher straight chain alcohols
Cholesterol esters - are esters of fatty acids with cholesterol
Vit. A & D esters- are palmitic acid or stearic acid esters of vitamin A (Retinol) or vitamin D, respectively

Sphingosine is a derivative of glycerol but it has –NH2 instead of -OH at C2 and has a -OH as well as a long chain hydrocarbon on C3
The –NH2 forms an amide bond with a long chain FA to form a ceramide.
Sphigomyelin is formed when a phosphodiester bridge links the C1 -OH of ceramide to ethanolamine or choline

tissueThe concentration of this PL are increased

Cerebrosides have a monosaccharide attached to the C1 -OH of ceramide
Gangliosides have an oligosaccharide attached to theC1 -OH of ceramide
Cerebrosides are found in the brain and Spinal Chord. Chief constituent of myelin sheath
Gangliosides are found in the ganglions of brain

Properties of cholesterolThe double bond can be saturated by addition
of hydrogen to form the dihydroderivative, it can also be halogenated
The 3 position OH group can be esterified with fatty acids to form cholesterol esters; three fourths of cholesterol of plasma exists as ester

Cholesterolin membrane
Cholesterol inserts into bilayer membranes with its hydroxyl group oriented toward the aqueous phase & its hydrophobic ring system adjacent to fatty acid chains of phospholipids.
The OH group of cholesterol forms hydrogen bonds with polar phospholipid head groups.

But the presence of cholesterol in a phospholipid membrane interferes with close packing of fatty acid tails in the crystalline state, and thus inhibits transition to the crystal state.
Phospholipid membranes with a high concentration of cholesterol have a fluidity intermediate between the liquid crystal and crystal states.
54
Interaction with the relatively rigid cholesterol decreases the mobility of hydrocarbon tails of phospholipids.

Prostacyclins, thromboxanes and leukotrienesPGH2 in platelets is converted to
thromboxane A2 (TXA2) a vasoconstrictor which also promotes platelet aggregation
PGH2 in vascular endothelial cells is converted to PGI2, a vasodilator which inhibits platelet aggregation
Aspirin’s irreversible inhibition of platelet COX leads to its anticoagulant effect

Functions of eicosanoidsProstaglandins – particularly PGE1 – block
gastric production and thus are gastric protection agents
Misoprostol (Cytotec) is a stable PGE1
analog that is used to prevent ulceration by long term NSAID treatment
PGE1 also has vasodilator effectsAlprostadil (PGE1) – used to treat infants with
congenital heart defectsAlso used in impotance (Muse)

Functions of eicosanoidsPGF2 – causes constriction of the uterus
Carboprost; “Hebamate” (15-Me-PGF2) – induces abortions
PGE2 is applied locally to help induce labor at term

Other terpenestetraterpenes (C-40) are not as common as
mono, di, and triterpenesinclude the carotenoids such as beta-carotene
(precursor of vitamin A) and lycopene found in tomatoes
usually colorful compounds due to highly conjugated system
polyisoprenoids or polyprenols consist of numerous isoprene adducts (8 – 22) examples include dolichol phosphate,
undecaprenyl alcohol (bactoprenol) and the side chains of vitamins K, vitamin E and coenzyme Q
