Chapter 11, Problem 19P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

If Chargaff had obtained a DNA sample from thermoacidophilic bacteria, then the relative G:C content in the sample is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

The genetic material of a living thing which contains DNA and RNA is known as genome. It consists of genes, non-coding DNA and the mitochondrial DNA. The human genome consists of a genome possessed by Homo sapiens that is composed of 23 chromosomes pair and approximately three billion DNA base pairs.

There are four base types of DNA: adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G) and thymine (T). The adenine is complementary nucleotide for thymine and cytosine is the complementary nucleotide for guanine.

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?
