The body's cholesterol is made in the liver.
It is used in the liver to make bile acids where they are then stored in the gall bladder. Bile acids are used to dissolve fats from the food.
In addition, you should know,
Total cholesterol is composed of HDL and LDL. One is "good" cholesterol, and the other is bad.
Bad cholesterol is made when the diet consists of too many fried foods and preferring well-done proteins, not simply because of saturated fats.
It is best to roast, stew, boil or steam meats, or grill to medium only. Eggs should be soft boiled or soft scrambled.
Bad cholesterol is also made from trans fats in diet, and also too many refined carbohydrates.
The goal is to have as much as possible of the "good" cholesterol, even if that means your total cholesterol number reaches 350. Thousands of Eskimo indians have demonstrated it's the healthiest range of total cholesterol.
In prokaryotes, RNA synthesis and protein synthesis takes place in the cytoplasm. In eukaryotes, RNA is produced in the cells nucleus and then moves to the cytoplasm to play a role in the production of protein.
The major sterol in the diet is cholesterol. It is found in animal-based foods such as eggs, meat, and dairy products. Cholesterol is an essential component of cell membranes and is also a precursor for the synthesis of hormones and vitamin D in the body.
Fatty acids synthesis starts with acetyl-CoA and builds up by the addition of two carbon units. The synthesis occurs in the cytoplasm in contrast to the degradation (oxidation), which occurs in the mitochondria. Many of the enzymes for the fatty acid synthesis are organized into a multienzyme complex called fatty acid synthetase. The major sites of fatty acid synthesis are adipose tissue and the liver
Endoplasmic reticulum because ribosomes are present in it OR we can also say the cell organelle ribosomes because they are sites of protein synthesis
A lot of protein synthesis takes place in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. This phase follows cell division and precedes DNA replication. It is when the cell grows and prepares for DNA synthesis in the subsequent S phase.
the smooth endoplasmic reticulum has the role in cholesterol synthesis, fat metabolism, and detoxification of drugs
Yes, cholesterol is important in the synthesis of sex hormones.
Cholesterol is either absorbed from food or made in the body. This synthesis can take place in most cells in the body including the cells of the heart, however cholesterol does not only come from the heart. Cholesterol can lead to clogging of arteries around the heart leading to heart problems.
Biosynthesis in the"liver" accounts for approximately 10% of the cholesterol produced each day. Cholesterol synthesis occurs in the cytoplasm and microsomes.Related link:http://themedicalbiochemistrypage.org/cholesterol.html
In the Nucleolus.
Protein Synthesis takes place in the ribosomes and in the mitochondria of a cell.
I believe it takes place in the Nucleous
NADPH2
In the cytosol
In the cytoplasm.
Smooth ER
The best places to take a cholesterol test in the city of Atlanta is the medical center. Walgreens is another place that a person can take a cholesterol test.
