Carbohydrate metabolism

Fatty acids are an important energy source, for they yield over twice as much energy as an equal mass of carbohydrate or protein. In humans, the primary dietary source of fatty acids is triacylglycerols. This lecture will describe the metabolism of fatty acids. The two main components of fatty acid metabolism are β oxidation and fatty acid synthesis. Upon completion of this lecture, you will understand that the fatty-acid breakdown reactions of β oxidation result in the formation of reduced cofactors and acetyl-CoA molecules, which can be further catabolized to release free energy.

Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (Fru-2,6-P2 ) plays an important role in the regulation of major carbohydrate fluxes as both allosteric activator and inhibitor of target enzymes. To examine the role of Fru-2,6-P2in the regulation of hepatic carbohydrate metabolism in vivo,Fru-2,6-P2 levels were elevated in ADM mice with adenovirus-mediated overex-pression of a double mutant bifunctional enzyme, 6-phos-phofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase (n¼6), in comparison to normal control mice (control,n¼6). ...

Starch-binding domains are noncatalytic carbohydrate-binding modules that mediate binding to granular starch. The starch-binding domains from the carbohydrate-binding module family 45 (CBM45, http://www.cazy.org) are found as N-terminal tandem repeats in a small number of enzymes, primarily from photosynthesizing organisms.
