EUnsaturated chains bend and pack in a less ordered way, with greater potential for motion.
Triglycerols (triglycerides)
u Triglycerols consist of a glycerol esterified with three fatty acids
membranes; «highly reduced forms of carbon; yield large amount
of energy upon oxidation in metabolism;
Lipid Classification
«Simple lipids: Fatty Acids and their simple esters – triacylglycerols and waxes
«Compound lipids: contain more than simple alcohols and fatty acids – glycerophosphatides, sphingolipids etc.
«Isoprenoid lipids: derived from isoprene – steroids, fat soluble vitamins, terpenes etc.
« Example of a terpene molecule:
Examples of terpene molecule
Steroids
« Based on a core structure consisting of three 6-membered rings and one 5-membered ring, all fused together;
« Sphingomyelins = ceramide + phospholipids (via 1-hydroxyl group)
« Glycosphingolipids = ceramide + β-linked sugar at the 1-hydroxyl moiety.

Fatty Acids
ü Fatty acids = carboxyl group + a long hydrocarbon chain ü Unstaurated fatty acids contain one or more double bonds
in hydrocarbon chains; Double bonds in fatty acids are usually have the cis configuration. ü Saturated fatty acids are single bonds in all carbon-carbon bonds; ü Most naturally occurring fatty acids have an even number of carbon atoms.

phosphocholine or phosphoethanolamine
a monosaccharide such as glucose or galactose
a complex oligosaccharide, including the acidic sugar sialic acid
Waxes
Terpenes
« Terpenes are a class of lipids from two or more molecules of 2-methyl-1,2-butadiene, or isoprene;
« All sterols (including cholesterol) and steroid hormones are terpene-based molecules
« Phosphatidic acid is the parent compound for the glycerol-based phospholipids;
« Phosphatidic acid consists of sn-glycerol-3-phosphate with fatty acids esterified at the 1and 2-positions;
