Why was it unexpected that transporter proteins are required for transmembrane fatty acid transport?

#Unit 2. Cellular Organization
  1. because these molecules are too small for their diffusion to be impeded by membranes

  2. because it is the cytosolic fatty acid binding-protein–fatty acid complex that is the actual transported complex

  3. because these molecules are sufficiently hydrophobic to diffuse across membranes

  4. because triglycerides carried by lipoproteins were thought to be the only source of fatty acids in the circulation

Phenyl ammonia lyase (PAL) involved in biosynthesis of phenolic compound in plants. Following are some statements regarding the action of PAL;

a) PAL catalyze conversion of phenyl alanine to p-coumaric acid

b) PAL catalyzes the conversion of phenyl alanine into trans-Cinnamic acid by elimination of an ammonia molecule

c) The activity of PAL is increased by environmental factors, such as low nutrient levels, light, and fungal infection

d) PAL is situated at a branch point between primary and secondary metabolism, so the reaction that it catalyzes is an important regulatory step in the formation of many phenolic compounds
