Metabolism of Sphingolipids (With Diagram) | Lipids
In this article we will discuss about the metabolism of sphingolipids, explained with the help of a suitable diagram. Sphingosine results from the condensation of palmityl-coenzyme A with serine. The next step consists in the binding of a fatty acid which gives a ceramide. This ceramide can react either with CDP-choline to form a sphinÂgomyelin, or with UDP-galactose to give [...]
