Chapter 20, Problem 20.12E

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The name of substrate and type of reaction for the enzyme succinate dehydroganase is to be identified.

Concept introduction:

Enzymes are assigned common names which are usually shorter and more convenient. The common names of enzymes are derived by adding -ase to the name of the substrate or to the combination of the substrate name and type of reaction.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The name of substrate and type of reaction for the enzyme L-amino acid reductase is to be identified.

Concept introduction:

Enzymes are assigned common names which are usually shorter and more convenient. The common names of enzymes are derived by adding -ase to the name of the substrate or to the combination of the substrate name and type of reaction.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The name of substrate and type of reaction for the enzyme cytochrome oxidase is to be identified.

Concept introduction:

Enzymes are assigned common names which are usually shorter and more convenient. The common names of enzymes are derived by adding -ase to the name of the substrate or to the combination of the substrate name and type of reaction.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

The name of substrate and type of reaction for the enzyme glucose$-6-$phosphate isomerase is to be identified.

Concept introduction:

Enzymes are assigned common names which are usually shorter and more convenient. The common names of enzymes are derived by adding -ase to the name of the substrate or to the combination of the substrate name and type of reaction.
