Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Effect of overexpression of mutated EGFR on EGF signaling should be determined.

Concept introduction:

EGF (epidermal growth factor) is a peptide hormone, which is submaxillary glands of the humans. It is also found in the parotid gland and submandibular gland of the humans. EGF binds to the EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor). The main functions of EGF are cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival.

Imagine that aldolase can react with the seven carbon molecule Sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphate (below). Use the mechanism to predict the two products generated. Please draw out the stereochemistry in a fischer projection.
Sodium borohydride (NaBH4) is a potent inhibitor of aldolase. It is known to ONLY inhibit theenzyme when it is complexed with substrate. Treatment of the enzyme alone has no effect.What is the mechanism for this inhibition? Please draw out the mechanism and show how it inhibits this.
