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

What cell is Responsible for membrane and lipid synthesis and detoxification?
endoplasmic reticulum
What is the site for protein-synthesis?
The site for protein synthesis is a cell structure. The specific structure in which synthesis occurs is the ribosomes, which is in the cytoplasm.
What is a lipid that is an important component of cells only in animal cells?
That lipid is cholesterol.It is found in cell membrane.
Organelle site within cell where protein synthesis occurs?
nucleus in the ribosomes
The cell membrane of animal cells contains which lipid not seen in plant cells?
The cell membrane of animal cells contains which lipid not seen in plant cells is cholesterol. Cholesterol will not form a membrane by itself.
What cell carries out extensive lipid synthesis?
burat
What cell is Responsible for membrane and lipid synthesis and detoxification?
endoplasmic reticulum
What part of the cell is responsible for lipid synthesis?
The smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
Is cytoplasm the site of protein synthesis in the cell?
Protein synthesis occurs on ribosomes found in the cell.
What is a site of lipid synthesis?
In a cell,lipid synthesis takes place in Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum(SER).SER also works as a channel for transport of these lipids.Some of the lipids are used in formation of the plasma membrane.This process is known as bio genesis.
When does synthesis occur?
Within the Cell cycle, Dna synthesis occurs during the S [synthesis] phase.
What is the mechanism of action of lipid soluble hormones?
activation of mRNA, which increases protein synthesis in the cell
What is the site for protein-synthesis?
The site for protein synthesis is a cell structure. The specific structure in which synthesis occurs is the ribosomes, which is in the cytoplasm.
Does protein synthesis occur on lysosomes in the cell?
No it does not. It occurs in Ribosomes.
What site of lipid synthesis in the cell is the?
It is either smooth, or rough, endopolasmic reticulum. Sorry, I forget which one.
What is the function of protein synthesis in an animal cell?
mitochondria
On what organelle in the cell does protein synthesis occur?
Protein synthesis takes place in the ribosomes and also in the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER).
