Most dietary lipids are triacylglycerols (TAGs) and phosphatides that are digested by TAG lipases and phospholipases (PLIPs), respectively, originating fatty acids (FA). The genome of Musca domestica has genes coding for phospholipases A1 (1PLIP), A2 (2PLIP), B (BPLIP), and acid lipases (ALIP), as for proteins involved in activation, binding, and metabolism of FA, which expression in the larval midgut was evaluated by RNA-seq. Some of the codified proteins were identified in midgut microvillar-enriched membrane by proteomics. 1PLIPs are the most expressed PLIPs, mainly in anterior midgut whereas 2PLIPs, and BPLIP in middle and posterior midgut, and ALIPs between middle and posterior regions. Absorption of FAs is putatively accomplished by proteins involved in FA activation (acyl-CoA synthetases) found in microvillar-enriched membrane preparations. Furthermore, FA uptake could be enhanced by proteins that bind FAs (FA-binding proteins) and its activated form (acyl-CoA binding proteins) mainly expressed in posterior midgut. Activated FAs could have different fates: synthesis of diacylglycerol (DAG) and TAG through monoacylglycerol and glycerol-3-phosphate pathways; synthesis of phosphatides; energy source by ß-oxidation. Most genes coding for enzymes of those routes is expressed mainly at the end of posterior midgut. Data suggest that phosphatides are digested in anterior midgut by Md1PLIPs, releasing lysophosphatides that emulsify fats to be digested by MdALIPs in the middle and posterior midgut. Most resulting FAs is absorbed in the posterior midgut, where they follow the synthesis of DAG, TAG, and phosphatides or are oxidized along the midgut, mainly in highly metabolic middle and posterior midgut regions.
