2. Carnitine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnitine

   Carnitine is a zwitterion, meaning it has both positive and negative charges in its structure. In an aqueous solution, L-carnitine is freely soluble and its ionizable groups, COO - and N + (CH 3 ) 3 , are over 90% dissociated at physiological pH (~7.4) for humans.

3. Carnitine biosynthesis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnitine_biosynthesis

   Carnitine biosynthesis is a method for the endogenous production of L-carnitine, a molecule that is essential for energy metabolism. [1] [2] [3] ...

4. Acetylcarnitine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetylcarnitine

   Acetyl-L-carnitine, ALCAR or ALC, is an acetylated form of L-carnitine. It is naturally produced by the human body, and it is available as a dietary supplement. Acetylcarnitine is broken down in the blood by plasma esterases to carnitine which is used by the body to transport fatty acids into the mitochondria for breakdown and energy production.

5. Fatty acid metabolism - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatty_acid_metabolism

   Acyl-carnitine is shuttled inside by a carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase, as a carnitine is shuttled outside. Acyl-carnitine is converted back to acyl-CoA by carnitine palmitoyltransferase II, located on the interior face of the inner mitochondrial membrane. The liberated carnitine is shuttled back to the cytosol, as an acyl-CoA is shuttled ...

6. Carnitine palmitoyltransferase I - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnitine_palmitoyl...

   Carnitine palmitoyltransferase I (CPT1) also known as carnitine acyltransferase I, CPTI, CAT1, CoA:carnitine acyl transferase (CCAT), or palmitoylCoA transferase I, is a mitochondrial enzyme responsible for the formation of acyl carnitines by catalyzing the transfer of the acyl group of a long-chain fatty acyl-CoA from coenzyme A to l-carnitine.

   When comparing vegan, vegetarian, and omnivore diet types, researchers found that food quality and diversity may have the biggest impact on the health and structure of the gut microbiome.

8. Palmitoylcarnitine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palmitoylcarnitine

   Palmitoylcarnitine is an ester derivative of carnitine involved in the metabolism of fatty acids.During the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA), fatty acids undergo a process known as β-oxidation to produce energy in the form of ATP. β-oxidation occurs primarily within mitochondria, however the mitochondrial membrane prevents the entry of long chain fatty acids (>C10), so the conversion of fatty ...
