Chapter 18.2, Problem 18.2P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The equation for hydrolysis of GTP to GDP has to be written. Also, the sign of energy change has to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Nucleotide is defined as basic unit for formation of nucleic acid that is essential for completion of metabolic reactions in body. The three basic components of nucleotide are as follows:

1. Nitrogen-containing base

2. Pentose sugar

3. Phosphate group

Nitrogen-containing base and pentose sugar are collectively known as nucleoside. When a phosphate group is attached with nucleoside then it is termed as nucleotide. Examples of nucleosides are GTP and ATP. Nucleotide on hydrolysis releases energy by cleavage of phosphoanhydride bond.
