(a)
Interpretation:
Name of pathway should be given for synthesis of glucose.
Concept Introduction:
Digestion: A general term for the breakdown of food into small molecules.
Describe carbohydrate digestion, where it takes place in the body, the enzymes involved, and name the major products of the process.
Glucose is the major fuel for your body. It is the preferred fuel for the brain, working muscle cells, and red blood cells.

- In a cell free preparation of beta-lactamase, penicillin is hydrolyzed in a D2O enriched assay. After one round of catalysis, where would you anticipate finding Deuterium? please help thank youarrow_forwardTo map the active site of -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. question: the b-lactamase hydrolyzes the lactam-ring in antibiotics like penicillin. Describe the mechanism, of hydrolysis, insuring to include the involvement of S, D, and K in the reaction sequence. Please help!arrow_forwardThree of these amino acids participate in the proteolytic hydrolysis of polypeptides. Show the charge-relay network generated by the serine proteases and identify the nucleophilic species that initiates the hydrolysis. please help!arrow_forward
- You have isolated a protein and determined that the native molecular weight of the holoenzyme is 160 kD using size exclusion chromatography. Analysis of this protein using SDS-PAGE revealed 2 bands, one at 100 kD and one at 30 kD. 1. Describe the architecture of the polypeptide component of this enzyme. 2. The enzyme was found to be 0.829% NAD (by weight). What further can be said regarding the architecture? can you please help me with question number 2arrow_forwardTo map the active site of -lactamase, the enzyme was hydrolyzed with trypsin to yield a hexapeptide (P1) with the following amino acids.

P1, P2, and P3 contain the active site serine. Question: although S, K, and D are involved in the catalysis, the E in this hexapeptide does not participate in the hydrolysis of the b-lactam ring. Why is that?arrow_forwardTo map the active site of beta-lactamase, the enzyme was hydrolyzed with trypsin to yield a hexapeptide (P1) with the following amino acids.
