Chapter 23, Problem 23.49EP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: To identify the substances among malate, oxaloacetate, fumarate, αketoglutarate, and citrate that contains four carbon atoms.

Concept introduction: There are a number of metabolic reaction that occur in the human body for completion of functions. During these metabolic reactions, the various metabolic intermediates are formed for the short time to complete the reactions. Polyfunctional carboxylate ions are also the metabolic intermediate formed during metabolic pathways.

Polyfunctional carboxylate ions act as a substrate in the metabolic pathways and can be divided into two parts depending upon the parent carboxylic acid.

The first class consists of malate, oxaloacetate and fumarate ion which are derivative of succinic acid.

The chemical structures for carboxylate ion derived from succinic acid are as follows:

The second class consists of αketoglutarate and citrate ion which is a derivative of glutaric acid.

The chemical structures for carboxylate ion derived from glutaric acid are as follows:
