Interpretation:
The mechanism of the reaction between protein-bound acetyl and malonyl units to yield a protein- bound 3-ketobytyryl unit is to be shown. The kinds of reactions occurring also are to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The mechanism of the reaction between protein-bound acetyl and malonyl units to yield a protein- bound 3-ketobytyryl unit involves the following reactions. i) Attack of the malonyl protein anion on acetyl protein (Claisen condensation) ii) Loss of S-protein iii) Decarboxylation iv) Protonation and taurtomerization.
To show:
The mechanism of the reaction between protein-bound acetyl and malonyl units to yield a protein- bound 3-ketobytyryl unit is to be shown. The kinds of reactions occurring also are to be stated.
