Metabolism of Glycerolipids (With Diagram)
In this article we will discuss about the process of metabolism of glycerolipids, explained with the help of suitable diagrams. Synthesis and Degradation of Glycerophospholipids: The common precursor of all phosphatides is phosphatidic acid. There are two pathways for carrying out the biosynthesis of this lipid. In the first, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, which is one of the intermediates of glycolysis (see fig. [...]
