    Amino Acids Glycine is the smallest of the amino acids. It is ambivalent‚ meaning that it can be inside or outside of the protein molecule. In aqueous solution at or near neutral pH‚ glycine will exist predominantly as the zwitterion. Alanine is a hydrophobic molecule. It is ambivalent‚ meaning that it can be inside or outside of the protein molecule. The α carbon of alanine is optically active; in proteins‚ only the L-isomer is found. Serine differs from alanine in that one of the methylenic

    Examples are fatty beef‚ lamb‚ pork‚ poultry with skin‚ beef fat (tallow)‚ lard and cream‚ butter‚ cheese and other dairy products made from whole or reduced-fat (2 percent) milk. These foods also contain dietary cholesterol. In addition‚ many baked goods and fried foods can contain high levels of saturated fats. Some plant foods‚ such as palm oil‚ palm kernel oil and coconut oil‚ also contain primarily saturated fats‚ but do not contain cholesterol. Trans- fats (or trans- fatty acids) are created

    Fatty acids (FAs) can ultimately be degraded through different pathways which include alpha‚ beta‚ and omega-oxidation. Alpha-oxidation occurs at carbon 2 of the chain‚ b-oxidation at C3‚ and omega-oxidation at methyl end of the fatty acid. The location of each mechanism also differs as alpha- oxidation occurs in peroxisomes only‚ beta-oxidation can take place in both peroxisomes and mitochondria. Omega-oxidation occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum of the various tissues. The importance of the differentiation

    fat. Saturated fats have chemical makeup in which the carbon atom is with hydrogen atom. Unsaturated fats are fatty acid in which there is one or more double bond in acid. Trans – fatty acids is an unsaturated fatty acid produced by the partial hydrogenation of vegetable oils. Hydrogenated fat is when any land of oil has gone through a specific manufacturing process. Trans fatty acid is harmful to the body it can increase the risk for heart disease and vascular problems. It may have a direct association
