Question
Chapter 14, Problem 44RE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The results of sequencing the human melanoma and lung cancer genomes are to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Cancer cells are the same as the normal cells of a human being; however, they are the modified mutant forms of the cells of the human body. The healthy cells get mutated by getting exposed to carcinogenic thins and harmful irradiations.
The anticancer agents kill both the normal cells and cancer cells, and the exploited part is that cancer cells are again formed at a faster rate than normal cells.

Their hypothesis was that phosphocholine joined with some cellular component to yield lecithin. In an earlier experiment, incubating 32 P-labeled phosphocholine at physiological temperature (37 °C) with broken cells from rat liver yielded labeled lecithin. This became their assay for the enzymes involved in lecithin synthesis. Determine the optimal pH for this enzyme and characterize the enzyme activity at different pH values. -O-P-O-CH2-CH₁₂-N(CH3)3 Phosphocholine H₂C-O-C-R HC-O-C-R2 + + + Cell fraction + ?

They determined its structure from the following observations and experiments. (a) Qualitative analysis showed that X was composed entirely of C, H, and O. A weighed sample of X was completely oxidized and the H2O and CO2 produced were measured. This quantitative analysis revealed that X contained 40.00% C, 6.71% H, and 53.29% O by weight. (b) The molecular mass of X, as determined by mass spectrometry, was 90.00 atomic mass units (u). (c) Infrared spectroscopy showed that X contained one double bond. (d) X dissolved readily in water, and the solution demonstrated optical activity when tested in a polarimeter. (e) The aqueous solution of X is acidic.
