(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The coenzyme transfers an acyl group from one substrate to another should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Cofactors that are organic molecule are called coenzymes;

Coenzymes are derived from Vitamins which are substance needed in small amounts for normal body function that the body cannot synthesize in adequate amounts.

Thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) is the coenzyme required by enzymes that catalyse the transfer of an acyl group.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The function of FAD on the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Cofactors that are organic molecule are called coenzymes;

Coenzymes are derived from Vitamins which are substance needed in small amounts for normal body function that the body cannot synthesize in adequate amounts.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The function of NAD+ in the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Cofactors that are organic molecule are called coenzymes;

Coenzymes are derived from Vitamins which are substance needed in small amounts for normal body function that the body cannot synthesize in adequate amounts.

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reaction necessary for proper blood clotting is catalysed by vitamin KH2 should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Cofactors that are organic molecule are called coenzymes;

Coenzymes are derived from Vitamins which are substance needed in small amounts for normal body function that the body cannot synthesize in adequate amounts.

(e)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The coenzyme are used for decarboxylation reaction should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Cofactors that are organic molecule are called coenzymes;

Coenzymes are derived from Vitamins which are substance needed in small amounts for normal body function that the body cannot synthesize in adequate amounts.

(f)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The various kinds of substrates should be determined for the decarboxylation coenzyme work on.

Concept introduction:

Cofactors that are organic molecule are called coenzymes;

Coenzymes are derived from Vitamins which are substance needed in small amounts for normal body function that the body cannot synthesize in adequate amounts.

(g)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The coenzyme should be determined for carboxylation reaction.

Concept introduction:
