New cards

Cholesterol in the membrane:

Decreases permeability and increases fluidity

2
New cards

Why are lipids transported in lipoproteins

Because lipids are not water soluble

New cards

4 Types of lipids

  • Fats (triglycerides)

  • Steroids (lipids that do not contain fatty acids like cholesterolm testosterone)

  • Phospholipids (glycerol + phosphate + two fatty acids)

  • Waxes ( alcohol with fatty acid is water proof)

New cards

Saturated vs unsaturated

Saturated: No double bond, causes less fluidity

Unsaturated: Cis or Trans, double bond, causes more fluidity. Cis causes more fluidity than Trans.

Trans and saturated fats are the ”bad fats”
