Metabolic Fates of Acetyl CoA

This video attempts to summarise the metabolic fates of acetyl CoA. More specifically, I will be comparing the fed state against the fasting state and how each triggers specific, metabolic pathways, hormones and metabolic products.

In short, by the end of this presentation you should have a good handle on the events that lead to acetyl CoA being diverted into differing metabolic pathways and the consequences this has on the metabolism. Enjoy :-)

Amazing explanation. You really understand this well and have the capability of sumarising and structruing things in a way that it is easy to understand. Many thanks for sharing.

Fantastic summaries of these pathways at a level of granularity that avoids the trees to let us see the woods and the beauty of how our biochemistry works.

Thank you for this thorough video, I finally understand the whole metabolism with all the pathways.

Very good, succinct explanation of the fates of a acetyl coA

[Spurros]

Great video, thank you - am I right in thinking there is no pathway for Acetyl-CoA to be converted back into Pyruvate?

[jemimasani]

Please sir, is metabolic water formed during lipolysis or lipogenesis? And how do dessert animals survive staying without external water and solely by metabolic water

[niknajwaafifah]

Make more video please. Very helpful 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[simranvohra]

Thanks for this crystal clear explanation

I dnt know how much to thank uuu😔I was very depressed abt this u hve really help meh....thanks

[seaofplatitudes]

Wow! Just what I was looking for! Thank you!

How is ac ytl coa produced in bets oxidation

[tricky]

Are the fed and fasted states the only two? One is normally presented as being in the presence of glucose and insulin and the other is normally presented as being in the absence of all calories, but there's also what happens if you are fed without glucose. Does that fall into one of those two states?

Sir plz tell me that how we calculate no. Of NADH produced from fatty acids of different no. Of C atoms

Electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation are the same! Oxidative phosphorylation refers to the events in the ETC as well as the synthesis of ATP by ATP synthase. Good overview, but be sure to let the people know the accurate truth, since there are students.

[Praveenbhupathi]

In the brain, when 50 molecules of β-hydroxybutyrate are oxidized, 20% of acetoacetate is converted to acetone. Calculate how many ATP molecules will be synthesized if all the acetyl-CoA and NADHH + molecules formed in this process are included in the Citric cycle and ETC.

What a pitty you didn't mention what happens in the mitochondria and what in the cytosol. Because AcetylCoa in the mitochondria is quite different from AcetylCoa in the cytosol...
