Class Overview

Biogenic substances insoluble to water are collectively called as lipid. Lipid is generally classified into the following three types.

  • Simple lipid ... fatty acid esters of alchohol such as glycerol and sphingoid base.
  • Complex lipid ... glycosylated or phosphorylated version of the simple lipid.
  • Derived lipid ... alcohols and fatty acids derived by hydrolyzing the simple lipid. Also includes sterols and polyketides.

水に溶けない生体成分を一般に脂質と呼び、以下の3つに分けられます。

  • 単純脂質 ... アルコールと脂肪酸のエステルで、スフィンゴ骨格とグリセロ骨格のものに大別されます。
  • 複合脂質 ... 単純脂質にリン酸や糖がついたものです。
  • 誘導脂質 ... 単純脂質を分解して得られるアルコール、脂肪酸。ステロールやポリケチドもここに含めます。
