Chapter 22, Problem 27P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The effect on the fatty acid synthesis by the mutation of ATP-citrate lyase must be determined.

Concept introduction:

The process of fatty acid synthesis occurs in the cytosol of the animal cells, while it occurs in the stroma of chloroplast in the plant cells. It is a stepwise process, which occurs by the addition of two-carbon units. These carbon units are provided by the acetyl-CoA, derived from glucose oxidation.

Draw and explain your answer thoroughly: a. What is the molar mass of aspirin (C9H8O4)?b. What is the mass of 0.00225mol of aspirin?c. How many moles of aspirin are present in 500mg of aspirin?
Geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate 5 is converted by general acid-base catalysis to 6, and then to the natural product 7. For clarity only limited atom numbers are shown, but the main chain carbons are numbered 1 to 16, and the off-chain methyl substituents are numbered 17-20.  A. Based on what you specified in A, use curly arrows on the drawing above to convert 5 to 6, and 6 to 7. Invoke general acids and general bases as needed, and draw in hydrogens as necessary  . B. On the structure of 7, write in the atom numbers for the carbons marked with an asterisk
