Thanks.arrow_forwardDistinguishing the Mechanisms of Class I and Class I Aldolases Fructose bisphosphate aldolase in animal muscle is a class 1 aldolase, which forms a Schiff base intermediate between substrate (for example. fructose-1, 6-bisphosphate or dihydroxyacetone phosphate) and a lysine at the active site (see Figure I8.12). The chemical evidence for this intermediate conies from studies with aldolase and the reducing agent sodium borohydride, NaBH4. Incubation of the enzyme with dihydroxyacetone phosphate and NaBH4 inactivates the enzyme. Interestingly, no inactivation is observed if NabH4 is added to the enzyme in the absence of substrate. Write a mechanism that explains these observations and provides evidence for the formation of a Schiff base intermediate in the aldolase reaction.arrow_forwardAmong all the endocrine glands one particular gland is more susceptible towards abnormal function - briefly discuss the biochemical function and metabolic fate of such a hormone?arrow_forward

- 5. Protein tyrosine phosphatase-1B (PTP1B) is an important enzyme regulating insulin signaling be- cause it catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphorylated tyrosine residues on the insulin receptor and on insulin receptor substrates, proteins of approximately 200,000 molecular weight that serve as cell sig- naling intermediates. The reaction has been shown to adhere to the following mechanism in the scheme below: k3 E-P 2- E + AROPO, НОРО,* 2- E • AROPO, ArОH where ArOPO32- represents the phosphorylated aromatic group.
