Chapter 10, Problem 12P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The factor by which the alteration in the concentration’s ratio of the enzyme molecules present in the R and T states is done with the help of the binding of single substrate molecule per enzyme molecule is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Enzymes being the catalysts increase the rate of reaction. In an enzyme-catalyzed reaction, the rate of reaction for the product formation depends on the concentration of enzyme, as well as the substrate involved in the reaction via formation of an enzyme substrate complex. The enzyme which is able to do the conformational changes if an effector gets attached to it is known as allosteric enzyme.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The ratio of the molecules of enzyme which are present in the R state with the enzyme molecules present in the T state containing the saturating amounts of the substrate is to be stated.

Biochemistry What is the process of "transamination" in either the muscles or the liver, that involves keto acid or glutamic acid? Please explain how the steps work. Thank you!
Biochemistry Please help. Thank you What is the importance of glutamic acid in the metabolism of nitrogen from amino acids? (we know therole; it’s used to remove the nitrogen from amino acids so that the remaining carbon skeleton can bebroken down by the “usual” pathways, but what is the important, unique role that only glutamicacid/glutamate can do?)
Biochemistry Please help. Thank you When carbamyl phosphate is joined to L-ornathine, where does the energy for the reaction come from?
