a. Give the name of the enzyme you have chosen and diagram its role in the anabolism of your assigned amino acid. b. Discuss the properties of this enzyme-does it operate near or far from equilibrium? What is its substrate? Does it require any cofactors? Is it a regulated enzyme (and if yes, what regulates it?)? c. Discuss how this deficiency in enzyme activity will impact synthesis of the selected amino acid, what metabolites will have elevated or decreased levels. d. What symptoms might these changes cause in a patient? Explain each symptom using metabolism. You must have at least two symptoms you can explain using metabolism. Feel free to use examples from literature of specific deficiencies, although do not focus in on just one article-your answer should be mainly your own ideas, supported with examples from the literature. e. Discuss how you could diagnose this condition without using gene sequencing-again, focus on metabolism.
