Fatty Acid Synthesis (for MCAT, USMLE and other exams)

Fatty acid synthesis occurs in the liver and mammary glands and to certain extent in the adipose tissue. Excess carbohydrates are diverted into fatty acid synthesis mediated by insulin. For detailed explanation watch this fatty acid synthesis video. Fatty acid biosynthesis or de novo synthesis of fatty acid process is catalyzed by synthase complex enzyme.

This is wonderful. Complex topic explained in such a easy manner. Thank you, Sir. Very helpful during the revision.

[@anuharikumar739]

Why does the shift occurs.. of the Acetyl groups from ACP to Cys ( by acetyl transacylase) and then back to ACP

[@sulthanan5454]

Why can't the acetyl group directly attach cys end ..Rather than bouncing from ACP to cys and back

Congratulations sir on your new job..this is my ist time here and i am happy to subscribe..i understood lecture

[@xiera4966]

Excellent explanation sir...Thank you very much sir...

[@vaishnaviramakrishna265]

Congratulations Sir!! Your new office looks amazing!!

[@vaishnaviramakrishna265]

Thanks for your hard work Sir!!! 👏👏👏👍

I have a question sir mRNA is synthesized from DNA Then how trna and rrna is synthesized in the cell ?? Don't know why this question can't comes to my mind in 12 th standard 😅😅

[@DrMungli]

Pre-tRNAs and pre-rRNAs are transcribed in the nucleus from DNA and once they enter into cytoplasm they are processed into tRNA and rRNA

[@jochebedsuga7251]

thank u so much. this really helped me a lot!!!!!!

[@brainyaction3867]

Great sir thanks

[@sagundawadi9682]

Hello Dr.Mungli sir, At 27:49 you said that the 4 reactions are repeated for the Synthesis of fatty acids namely, Condensation and Carboxyllation, reduction, dehydration and reduction. However the transacylation that occurs prior to the Nucleophillic attack ( Condensation and carboxyllation )is also repeated for each mulecule of malonyl CoA attached to the Chain?? Is it 5 or 4 Could You Please Clarify Thank You. Regards.

[@HONEST3382]

Congratulations!

[@manishathakur1503]

Sir...do you cover csir net syallbus also or only specific for these exam..?

[@45rakeshlosansarma32]

Sir l have a question....if all the c atoms are coming from acetylcoA ultimately...then what is the need to produce malonyl coA ..????? Sir ., Please clear my doubt

[@israsyed1084]

I have a question thats is actually not relevent to this topic. Butt plzzz can u give me the answer? Its so important! My question is that beside all the genetic information does our dna also contain any information about our future. For example weathr it has any information about what a person is going to do next or what will happen to him. Plzzzzz i want ur answer???

[@DrMungli]

I'm not an expert in genetics but here what I think. There will always be a gene polymorphism and epigenetic changes to adopt to the new environment and new way of life. Gene polymorphism and epigenetic change could predetermine certain characteristics of a person.

Thank you Sir.I will be most thankful if you provide me your Email.Id.please Sir.
