Lipogenesis

|
|
Fatty acids synthesis starts with acetyl-CoA and builds up by the
addition of two-carbon units. The synthesis occurs in the cytoplasm of
the cell, in contrast to the degradation (oxidation), which occurs in
the mitochondria. The
major sites of fatty acid synthesis are adipose tissue and the liver.

Acetyl-CoA
Please find assay kits for Acetyl-CoA.
Acetyl-CoA carboxylase
Acetyl-CoA carboxylase induces carboxylation of acetyl-CoA into Malonyl-CoA. Please find for Acetyl-CoA carboxylase : antibodies, cDNA clones, ELISA kits, blocking peptides, assay kits.
Malonyl-CoA
Fatty acid synthase
Please find for Fatty acid synthase : antibodies, ELISA kits, peptides, cDNA clones, RNAi, assay kits, blocking peptides, primers.
