Question
Chapter 28, Problem 28.47AP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The example for a steroid hormone and the structure of the steroid hormone has to be determined. The place where the steroid hormone releases and functions has to be determined and the result of hormone message in the body has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Hormones: Hormones are chemical messengers which are secreted by the cell in endocrine system and are transported along the blood to stimulate the target cells having the corresponding receptors.
Hormones are of three types,
- 1. Amino acid derivatives: It is a derivative of an amino acid formed by the reaction at the side chain
functional group ,carboxylic acid group, amino group or by the replacement of a hydrogen atom by heteroatom. - 2. Polypeptides: Polypeptides are organic
polymers having several amino acids attached to each other in a chain. - 3. Steroid: Steroids are a type of organic compound having a molecular structure with four rings connected to each other.

Imagine that aldolase can react with the seven carbon molecule Sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphate (below). Use the mechanism to predict the two products generated.
Please draw out the stereochemistry in a fischer projection.
Sodium borohydride (NaBH4) is a potent inhibitor of aldolase. It is known to ONLY inhibit theenzyme when it is complexed with substrate. Treatment of the enzyme alone has no effect.What is the mechanism for this inhibition?
Please draw out the mechanism and show how it inhibits this.
