Catabolism’s 3 stages

Catabolism is the set of metabolic pathways that break down molecules into smaller units & release energy

Page 3: Lipolysis, β-oxidation & ketone body formationCatabolism’s 3 stages • Stage 1 – food is broken down into smaller units - digestion • Stage 2 – these molecules are degraded

Catabolism’s 3 stages• Stage 1 – food is broken down into

smaller units - digestion

• Stage 2 – these molecules are degraded to simple units that play a central role in metabolism

• Stage 3 – ATP is produced from the complete oxidation of the acetyl unit of acetyl CoA

Page 4: Lipolysis, β-oxidation & ketone body formationCatabolism’s 3 stages • Stage 1 – food is broken down into smaller units - digestion • Stage 2 – these molecules are degraded

Lipids to be degraded come from 2 sources:

a) Food- adults eat

60-150 g/day

- >90% TAGthe rest:

cholesterol,cholesterol esters, PL, FA......

b) Fat deposits(adipocytes)

Pancreas lipases break down TAG toFFA and 2-MAG

Cholesterol esters are hydrolyzed to cholesterol and FFAs

FAs are cleaved from PLs

Phospholipases

Lipoprotein transport particles (TAGs and apoliprotein B-48)

Dietary lipids are transported in chylomicrons

Blood

process repeats itself in reverseMembrane-bound lipases degrade TGs to FFAs and MAGsfor transport into tissue . . . .

Chylomicron

•large lipoprotein particles (diameter of 75 to 1,200 nm)

•created by the absorptive cells of the small intestine

•composed of TAGs(85%) & contain some cholesterol & cholesteryl esters

Energy depots

• Glycogen in muscle– 1200 kcal

• Glycogen in liver– 400 kcal

• Triacylglycerols in fat– 135,000 kcal

• Proteins (mainly muscle)– 24,000 kcal

”β-oxidation” or FA degradation occurs in the mitochrondria

First → the FA is activated (FA-CoA is formed) on the outer mitochondrial membrane of Acyl-CoA-synthetase

Second → FA-CoA is transported into the mitochondria with help of carnitine if ≥ C14

Palmitoyl CoA + 7 FAD + 7 NAD+ + 7 CoA + 7 H2O →8 AcCoA + 7 FADH2 + 7 NADH + 7H+

Functionality of ketone bodies• Water soluble

– do not need lipoprotein or albumin• Facilitate oxidation of FA even when

Ac-CoA accumulates due to low activity in the citric acid cycle

• Liberate CoA when bound to Ac-CoA:FA oxidation can continue

• Important energy source for the brain under fasting conditions

Lipid Catabolism Summary• TAGs are highly concentrated energy depots• Lipases release FA from TAG• Chylomicrons transport FA from small intestine to

peripheral tissues• FAs are synthesized and degraded by different

pathways – essentially opposite• Use of FAs as fuel requires 3 stages (catabolism)• Oxidation of C16 FA = 106 ATPs• Unsaturated and odd chain FAs require additional

steps for degradation (isomerase, reductase)• Ketone bodies are water-soluble transporters of Ac-

CoA• Ketone bodies supplied as energy during fasting
