L -Glutamic acid (G1251) - Product Information Sheet - Sigma
... L-Glutamic acid is one of the two amino acids that contains a carboxylic acid group in its side chains. Glutamic acid is commonly referred to as "glutamate", because its carboxylic acid side chain will be deprotonated and thus negatively charged in its anionic form at physiological pH. In amino acid ...

Fatty acid synthesis
Fatty acid synthesis is the creation of fatty acids from acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA precursors through action of enzymes called fatty acid synthases. It is an important part of the lipogenesis process, which – together with glycolysis – functions to create fats from blood sugar in living organisms.
