Chapter 14, Problem 8P
Summary Introduction

To explain: The production of compounds, lactate and ethanol during fermentation of soy sauce.

Introduction:

Pyruvate is known as the end product of glycolysis continues in two different fates. In aerobic process it undergoes aerobic respiration, but in anaerobic process it undergoes fermentation. There are two types of fermentation occurs by pyruvate, one is lactic acid fermentation another one is the alcoholic fermentation.

Summary Introduction

To explain: The reason for preservation of soy sauce from having a strong vinegary taste, oxygen is kept out of the fermentation tank.

Introduction:

In anaerobic respiration, pyruvate released from glycolysis either produces ethanol or lactic acid. If it results into ethanol as a product, it is known as alcoholic fermentation. This process is used commercially to make alcoholic beverages, beers, bread, and other bakery products.

what are the different classes and some examples of neuroprotectants that can be used to treat, prevent, or combat neurotoxicity/a neurotoxicant...for example, antioxidants, nutraceuticals, etc.,..?
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.
