Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mechanism by which Arg 210 assist proton flow.

Concept introduction:

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the energy source in the human body. It is formed in mitochondria, due to this, mitochondria are also termed as the powerhouse of the cells. ATP contains three highly energetic phosphate groups. When any kind of energy consuming activity is performed by the body, then these phosphate groups get hydrolyzed from ATP, yielding a large amount of energy.

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?
