2. Carnitine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnitine

   [1] [14] L-Carnitine, acetyl-l-carnitine, and propionyl-l-carnitine are available in dietary supplement pills or powders, with a daily amount of 0.5 to 1 g considered to be safe. [1] [3] It is also a drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat primary and certain secondary carnitine-deficiency syndromes secondary to inherited ...

3. 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.

4. 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 ...

5. Carnitine biosynthesis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnitine_biosynthesis

   The second step of L-carnitine biosynthesis requires the 3-hydroxy-N ε-trimethyllysine aldolase enzyme. 3-hydroxy-N ε-trimethyllysine aldolase is a pyridoxal phosphate dependent aldolase, and it catalyses the cleavage of 3-hydroxy-N ε-trimethyllysine into 4-N-trimethylaminobutyraldehyde and glycine.

6. Fatty-acid metabolism disorder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatty-acid_metabolism_disorder

   [1] The body's primary source of energy is glucose; however, when all the glucose in the body has been expended, a normal body digests fats. Individuals with a fatty-acid metabolism disorder are unable to metabolize this fat source for energy, halting bodily processes. [1]

7. Glycine propionyl-L-carnitine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycine_propionyl-l-carnitine

   In other studies, GPLC has been shown to have no effect on aerobic and anaerobic exercise performance, with results showing that up to 3 grams per day for 8 weeks in conjunction with aerobic-exercise training is ineffective for increasing muscle carnitine content and has no significant effects on aerobic- or anaerobic-exercise performance.
