This document provides an overview of lipids and fatty acids. It defines key terms related to lipids and fatty acid structure and classification. Lipids are classified as simple or complex lipids and can be saturated, monounsaturated, or polyunsaturated depending on their carbon chain structure. Fatty acids vary in chain length, degree of saturation, and cis/trans configuration. Essential fatty acids like omega-3 and omega-6 must be obtained through diet. The document discusses lipid functions in the body and roles in health.

- 3. Terms to be learned • Triacylglycerol three fatty acids esterified to glycerol • cis-C=C double bond; the hydrogens on each of the two carbon atoms are on the same side of the C=C plane (as opposed to trans-C=C bonds in which the hydrogen atoms are on opposite sides) • essential fatty acids; polyunsaturated fatty acids; synthesized by plants but not by mammals • fatty acid; unbranched hydrocarbon chain with a carboxylic acid functional group at one end and acyl group at the other end (CH3) • Lipoprotein; protein with covalently attached lipids Dr. Siham Gritly 3
- 4. • Bilayers; two lipid layers stacked so that the hydrocarbon chains face each other, and the head groups face out and interact with water • Liposome lipid bilayers forming small vesicles in aqueous solution • Micelle aggregation of lipids in aqueous solution • phospholipids (or glycerophospholipids) major components of cell membrane; two fatty acids and phosphoric acid esterified to glycerol (CH2OH—CHOH—CH2OH) • polyunsaturated (fatty acid) fatty acid containing more than one C=C double bond Dr. Siham Gritly 4
- 5. • saturated (fatty acid); fatty acid containing no double bonds • Amphipathic; a molecule that has a polar region at one end location and a nonpolar region at another • Sphingolipids; complex lipids with sphingosine, a C18 amino alcohol, as backbone; found predominantly in nerve and brain tissue Dr. Siham Gritly 5
- 6. Lipids fats, oils, steriod and waxes • Lipids are long hydrocarbon molecules • Lipids are chemical compound naturally occurring substance; consist of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, • widely found in plant and animal kingdoms. • A molecule of dietary fat consists of several fatty acids (containing long chains of carbon and hydrogen atoms), bonded to a glycerol. They are typically found as triglycerides (three fatty acids attached to one glycerol backbone). Dr. Siham Gritly 6
- 7. Classification of fats according to National Academy of Sciences • Total fat, provide 20-35 % of total energy intake • Saturated fatty acids, risk of (Coronary Heart Disease CHD) milk fat, coconut • Cis monounsaturated fatty acids, (olive oil) prevent (CHD), peanut oil • Cis polyunsaturated fatty acids of two type health benefit; fish oil, sunflower oil, corn oil, fish oil • 1-Omega 6 fatty acids • 2-Omega 3 fatty acids • Trans fatty acids, risk of (CHD), margin, shortening Dr. Siham Gritly 7
- 8. Common properties of lipids • Insoluble in water; Most lipids are strictly nonpolar and hydrophobic, so they dissolve in nonpolar substances, such as ether, chloroform and benzene. • Lipids are heterogeneous group of compounds related more by their physical rather than by chemical properties • Lipids contain large regions of just carbon and hydrogen, as carbon-carbon bonds and carbon- hydrogen bonds Dr. Siham Gritly 8
- 9. • Stored in adipose tissues (triacylglycerols) • Related health problems such as obesity, atherosclerosis • the proportion of oxygen is low, so lipids are mostly hydrocarbons • The chemical structure of fats and oils, the most common lipids, is based on fatty acid building blocks and an alcohol, glycerol • Fats are "hard" or solid at room temperature • Oils are liquids at room temperature Dr. Siham Gritly 9
- 10. major functions of lipids in human body; • They serve as structural components of biological membranes, cellular constituents (lipoproteins) • *main source of energy, provide the body with 2/3 of energy (9 kal) They provide energy reserves, in the form of triacylglycerols • *main source of fat soluble vitamins A, K, E D • *protection against traumatic injury an shock • *maintain body temperature • Electrical insulator Dr. Siham Gritly 10

- 13. Fatty Acids (FA) • Fatty acids are long-chain hydrocarbon molecules containing a carboxylic acid • The numbering of carbons in fatty acids begins with the carbon of the carboxylate group. Dr. Siham Gritly 13
- 14. Fatty acids structure • Fatty acids consists of a carboxyl group attached to a long hydrocarbon chain and methyl group (CH3) at the other end CH3(CH2)nCOOH Dr. Siham Gritly 14
- 15. • Essential fatty acids and nonessential • essential fatty acids; that they must be provided in the diet. • plants are capable of synthesizing linoleic and α-linolenic acid, humans can acquire these fats by consuming a variety of plants or else by eating the meat of animals that have consumed these plant fats. • These two essential fatty acids are also referred to as omega fatty acids. The use of the Greek omega, ω, refers to the end of the fatty acid opposite to that of the –COOH group. • Linoleic acid is an omega-6 PUFA and α-linolenic is an omega-3 PUFA Dr. Siham Gritly 15
- 16. The carbon chains of fatty acids can vary in 3 ways • 1-The number of carbons in the chain or the Length of chain in fatty acid • 4 – 22 carbons long • Short chains are more soluble • Short chains are more easily broken down • Short chains oxidize more easily Dr. Siham Gritly 16
- 17. • 2-Degree of saturation. The extent to which the chain is saturated with hydrogen • Saturated • Monounsaturated • Polyunsaturated • Most plant fats are unsaturated, • Fish oils are unsaturated • Other animal fats tend to be saturated Dr. Siham Gritly 17

- 27. delta ∆ and omega ω systems α-Linolenic acid (ALA) 18:3Δ9,12,15 (no-3) Essential fatty acid; An omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid Arachidonic acid 20:4Δ5,8,11,14 An omega- 6 polyunsaturated fatty acid Precursor for eicosanoid synthesis Dr. Siham Gritly 27
- 28. • Omega system ω counts from the methyl end of fatty acid hydrocarbon chain; the notation for linoleic acid is 18:2 ω 6 or 18:2 n 6 • This means that carbon number of linoleic acid is 18 and 2 indicates the number of double bond in position 6 counting from methyl group end of the carbon chain • The suggestion is that; The double bond in fatty acid always separated by three carbon so if the location of double bond of omega number one known the other double bond will be known Dr. Siham Gritly 28

- 30. Omega-3 (ω3) and omega-6 (ω6) fatty acids • Omega-3 (ω3) and omega-6 (ω6) fatty acids are unsaturated "Essential Fatty Acids" (EFAs) that need to be included in the diet because the human metabolism cannot create them from other fatty acids Alpha-linolenic acid is an omega-3 fatty acid because it has a double bond three carbons away from the "omega" carbon Dr. Siham Gritly 30

- 35. Orientation of Cis and trans bond of unsaturated fatty acids • The steric geometry of unsaturated fatty acids can also vary such that the acyl groups can be oriented on the same side or on opposite sides of the double bond. • A cis configuration; hydrogen atoms are on the same side of the double bond. The more double bonds the chain has in the cis configuration, the less flexibility it has • cis bonds limit the ability of fatty acids to be closely packed, and therefore could affect the melting temperature of the membrane or of the fat Dr. Siham Gritly 35
- 36. • A trans configuration, means that the next two hydrogen atoms are bound to opposite sides of the double bond. As a result, they do not cause the chain to bend much, and their shape is similar to straight saturated fatty acids Dr. Siham Gritly 36
- 37. Cis Configuration and Trans Configuration When the acyl groups are both on the same side of the double bond it is referred to as a cis bond, such as is the case for oleic acid (18:1).
