Question
Chapter 25, Problem 15P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The carbon atoms of glucose that are represented in glycine should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The essential amino acid glycine is synthesized in one step. Glycine is required for the synthesis of methionine, proteins, purines, nucleoside and lipids. Synthesis of glycine on the transcriptional level is controlled by cells to coordinate production of precursors for alternative pathways.
