Propionic acid metabolism
• Oxidation of an odd chain fatty acid results
in the production of one propionyl-CoA.
• The conversion of propionyl-CoA to
succinyl-CoA requires vitamin B12.
• Vitamin B12 deficiency can lead to
permanent neurological problems due to a
build up of metabolites of methylmalonate.
• Vitamin B12 deficiency can also lead to
pernicious anemia (covered later in the
course).

Triacylglycerol Storage
• Fatty acids are released from triacylglycerol in VLDL
and chylomicrons by the action of Lipoprotein lipase.
– L.P. lipase is an extracellular enzyme, located on the
endothelial wall. It is teathered to heparin.
– L.P. Lipase is made in adipocytes (as well as other cells).
Insulin stimulates the secretion of L.P. Lipase.
• The fatty acids that are generated are taken up by
nearby cells or transported as a complex with serum
albumin
Triacylglycerol Storage
• Glycerol-3-phosphate is required for
triacylglycerol synthesis.

Triacylglycerol Storage
• In adipose, glucose metabolism is required for
the synthesis of triacylglycerol.
• Glucose is taken up via the GLUT-4 transporter
• Glucose uptake is increased by insulin
(mobilization of GLUT-4)
Triacylglycerol Storage
• Fatty acids must be activated to Acyl-CoA

Fatty acid mobilization
• The rate controling step is the hydroysis of
triacylglycerol by hormone sensitive lipase to
form 2-monoacylglycerol. Other unregulated
lipases release the remaining fatty acid.
• Fatty acids and glycerol are released into the
blood.
• Fatty acids are transported bound to albumin
Fatty acid mobilization
Regulation of hormone sensitive lipase
• Perilipin and hormone sensitive lipase interact when
phosphorylated. Their interaction is necessary for triacylglycerol
mobilization.
• Regualtion is primarily via dephosphorylation catalyzed by
insulin-stiulated phosphatases
• Phosphorylation inactivates. It is catalyzed by PKA that is
stimulated by epinepherine and norepinepherine produced by
nerves that inervate adipose tissue.
Fatty acid mobilization
•Another regulated lipase, adipose triacylglycerol lipase,
also participates in triacylglycerol mobilization.
•Adipose triacylglycerol lipase hydrolyzes fatty acid
from the 1-position.
•Transcription of the adipose triacylglycerol lipase gene is
Repressed by insulin.

Fatty acid mobilization
• Insulin decreases triacylglycerol mobilization
– Insulin inactivates hormone sensitive lipase
– Insulin represses adipose triacylglycerol lipase
synthesis
• Insulin stimulates triacylglycerol synthesis for
storage
– glucose uptake increased by GLUT
– fatty acid uptake increased by L.P Lipase action
Fatty acid mobilization
• Adipose under normal conditions has no
glycerol kinase.
• Since glycerol can not be recycled, the
resynthesis of triacylglycerol is inhibited during
fatty acid mobilization
