Chapter 24.6, Problem 24.46QAP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The enzymes that catalyze transamination reactions should be identified.

Concept Introduction:

► In our natural body cycle, the degradation of amino acids generally occurs primarily in the liver.

► Transamination is one of the important pathways of degradation which converts an essential amino acid to a non-essential amino acid.

► Transamination is a reaction where the α-amino group of an amino acid is converted to an α-keto acid, usually α-ketoglutarate.

(11pts total) Consider the arrows pointing at three different carbon-carbon bonds in the molecule depicted below. Bond B Bond A Bond C a. (2pts) Which bond between A-C is weakest? Which is strongest? Place answers in appropriate boxes. Weakest Bond Strongest Bond b. (4pts) Consider the relative stability of all cleavage products that form when bonds A, B, AND C are homolytically cleaved/broken. Hint: cleavage products of bonds A, B, and C are all carbon radicals. i. Which ONE cleavage product is the most stable? A condensed or bond line representation is fine. ii. Which ONE cleavage product is the least stable? A condensed or bond line representation is fine. c. (5pts) Use principles discussed in lecture, supported by relevant structures, to succinctly explain the why your part b (i) radical is more stable than your part b(ii) radical. Written explanation can be no more than one-two succinct sentence(s)!
