Question
Chapter 23, Problem 26RE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Amino acids in the urea cycle that are linked to the citric acid cycle are to be determined.
Concept introduction:
In nitrogen
In urea cycle, nitrogen, which gets released by the catabolism of amino acids, is converted to urea.
This cycle also plays an important role in the biosynthesis of proteins.
