Lipid Metabolism
Across
- 3. In the absence of sufficient carnitine, fatty acids cannot be transported into mitochondria; instead, they are converted into this compound.
- 5. Helps to regulate the flux of fatty acids into the mitochondria for oxidation, and allosterically regulates CAT2 during beta-oxidation
- 6. Bile salts make emulsions, and pancreatic lipase hydrolyzes TGs to make these.
- 7. One of the symptoms associated with Myopathic CAT-2 deficiency resulting in muscle weakness.
Down
- 1. In this lipid metabolism pathway, lipids are synthesized from excess carbohydrates in the liver.
- 2. Acts as a carrier molecule in the mitochondrial membrane, forming acylcarnitine esters with fatty acids.
- 4. These include cholesterol, phospholipids and triglycerides.
- 5. Beta-oxidation occurs in the mitochondrial ____________.
