Chapter 23, Problem 13P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The balanced equation involved in the transformation of aspartate into glucose through an intermediate oxaloacetatemolecule and coenzymes should be written.

Concept introduction:

Transamination is also known as an amino transfer. It is a chemical reaction that takes place between two molecules. One is an amino acid that contains an amine or -NH2 group and the other is a keto acid having a keto (=O) group.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The balanced equation involved in the transformation of aspartate into oxaloacetate through an intermediate fumarate molecule should be written.

Concept introduction:

The urea cycle is a series of biochemical reactions which involve the formation of urea (NH2)2CO from the ammonia (NH3). It is also known as the ornithine cycle. It helps in the excretion of toxic ammonia by converting into urea. This cycle takes place in ureotelic organisms.
