Chapter 21, Problem 12P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

One reason for the irreversibility of the in vivo phosphorolysis should be stated.

Concept introduction:

The Le Chatelier’s principle is applied to the phosphorolysis reaction to identify the reason for the irreversibility of the in vivo phosphorolysis.

Le Chatelier’s principle simply states that when a constraint such as a change in concentration is applied to an equilibrated system (e.g. a reversible reaction), the equilibrium shifts to minimize the applied constraint.

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.
