Investigate the chemical structure of bile salts: cholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, ursodeoxycholic acid and lithocolic acid. Draw them and discuss which is the base structure from which they come and what is the biological importance.
the base structure is the structure of cholesterol.
Their importance is that it is a lipid soluble molecules it can produce many lipid soluble hormones.
It can acts like emulsifier which makes micelles of lipid into lipid droplets which makes lipid more easy to be absorbed.
Many pigment molecules can also come from cholesterol.
Thank you

1)The enterohepatic circulation reabsorbs bile salts in the distal portion of the small intestine (ileum). All of the following statements about the enterohepatic circulation are true except one. Select the statement below that is NOT true of the enterohepatic circulation? A) Reabsorbing bile salts in the ileum gives more time to emulsify lipid and aid in their absorption within a greater length of the small intestine. B) The reabsorption of bile salts allows them to be reused within new bile....
1 - Draw the chemical structure of ATP. Describe what is the same, and what is different from the 'A' in an RNA strand. Besides being used to make RNA, what other biological importance does ATP have? 2 - What is the central paradigm of Molecular Biology? What are the molecular machineries that facilitate each step? 3 - Draw the chemical structure of the amino acids glycine, alanine, valine, leucine, and isoleucine. Give a reason why an organism would need...
Solubilization of dietary lipids, achieved by mixing bile salts and degrading them with pancreatic lipases, is required for transport across the intestine where the free fatty acid and the lysophospholipid can then be resynthesized into triacylglycerols in the intestinal mucosal cells. Why is this necessary? Describe how and why the above differs from the transport of fatty acids into the mitochondria?
