Not specifically, but concepts that may apply to lipids and nucleic acids may be tested.

Things like Saturated vs. Unsaturated for lipids.

According to the MCAT manual for lipids you need to know the descripton and structure of steroids, terpenes, triacyl glycerols, and free fatty acids. I thinkthey also threw in a question on saponification in the 08/06 MCAT.
