Chapter 10, Problem 41P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mechanism for phosphorylation of a serine residue from ATP catalysis by protein kinase is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The organic compounds that contain amine $\left({\text{-NH}}_{\text{2}}\right)$ and carboxyl $\left(\text{-COOH}\right)$ functional groups with a side chain $\left(\text{-R}\right)$ are known as amino acids. The process of attaching the phosphoryl group to a molecule is known as phosphorylation. The process of phosphorylation is significant for the enzyme function. The process of phosphorylation is the covalent modification or regulation.
