The chemical reactions and pathways involving lipids, compounds soluble in an organic solvent but not, or sparingly, in an aqueous solvent. Includes fatty acids; neutral fats, other fatty-acid esters, and soaps; long-chain (fatty) alcohols and waxes; sphingoids and other long-chain bases; glycolipids, phospholipids and sphingolipids; and carotenes, polyprenols, sterols, terpenes and other isoprenoids. The chemical reactions and pathways involving neutral lipids, lipids only soluble in solvents of very low polarity. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of lipids, compounds soluble in an organic solvent but not, or sparingly, in an aqueous solvent. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of substances; typically the energy-requiring part of metabolism in which simpler substances are transformed into more complex ones. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of neutral lipids, lipids only soluble in solvents of very low polarity. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of acylglycerol, any mono-, di- or triester of glycerol with (one or more) fatty acids. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of substances, carried out by individual cells. The chemical reactions and pathways by which individual cells transform chemical substances. The chemical reactions and pathways involving lipids, as carried out by individual cells.
