Top 14 Processes for Lipid Transportation in Human

The following points highlight the fourteen main processes to transport lipids in human. 1. The major plasma lipids do not circulate in the free form, rather free fatty acids (FFA) are bound to albumin, whereas choles­terol, triglycerides and phospholipids are transported in the form of lipoprotein complexes. The density of these lipoproteins is inversely proportional to their lipid con­tent. 2. [...]

Processes Helping Amino Acids to Form Succinyl-CoA | Protein Metabolism

The following points highlight the top seven processes helping amino acids to form succinyl-CoA. The processes are: 1. Methionine 2. Trans-methylation 3. Leucine 4. Valine 5. Isoleucine 6. Catabolism of Histidine 7. Metabolism of Glycine. Amino Acids Forming Succinyl-CoA: Process # 1. Methionine: a. Methionine is first activated by ATP form­ing S-adenosylmethionine ("active me­thionine"). b. After removal of the methyl [...]
