Lipids: Classification, Structure, and Fatty Acid Nomenclature, Study notes of Biochemistry

A detailed overview of lipids, focusing on their classification and structural diversity. it delves into the intricacies of fatty acids, including their nomenclature, properties, and the differences between saturated and unsaturated types. The document also explores complex lipids and those that don't contain fatty acids, offering a comprehensive understanding of this essential biomolecule class. the detailed table of naturally occurring fatty acids, with their structures, properties, and nomenclature, is a valuable resource for students of biochemistry and related fields. the visual diagrams further enhance understanding of lipid structures and classifications. This resource is suitable for undergraduate biochemistry courses and related disciplines.
