Chapter 19, Problem 21RE
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reaction catalyzed by the enzyme isocitrate dehydrogenase and α ketoglutarate dehydrogenase is to be explained

Concept introduction:

The biological catalyst used to speed up the reactions in living organisms is known as an enzyme.

The enzymes are classified and named on the basis of type of reactions they catalyze.

A reaction in which the carboxylate group is removed and carbon dioxide is formed is known as oxidative decarboxylation reaction.

The beta-lactamase hydrolyzes the lactam-ring in penicillin. Describe the mechanism  of hydrolysis, insuring to include the involvement of S, D, & K in the reaction sequence. Please help
To map the active site of beta-lactamase, the enzyme was hydrolyzed with trypsin to yield a hexapeptide (P1) with the following amino acids. Glu, Lys, Leu, Phe, Met, and Ser. Treatment of P1 with phenyl isothiocyanate yielded a PTH derivative of phenylalanine and a peptide (P2). Treatment of P1 with cyanogenbromide gave an acidic tetrapeptide (P3) and a dipeptide (P4).Treatment of P2 with 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene, followed by complete hydrolysis, yields N-2,4-dinitrophenyl-Glu. P1, P2, and P3 contain the active site serine. Why doesn't D in this hexapeptide not participate in the hydrolysis of the beta-lactam ring even though S, K, and D are involved in the catalyst?
