Chapter 4, Problem 48P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The difference in the percentage of identity of the amino acid sequence of a yeast protein and a human protein needs to be explained.

Concept introduction:

A sequence of three DNA or RNA nucleotides is called a codon. The three-nucleotide sequence or codon corresponds to a specific amino acid, and these codons are interpreted by the tRNA. The tRNA also contains the anticodon which recognizes and interprets the codons on the mRNA. The tRNA binds itscorresponding codon on the ribosome and they decode the mRNA until the whole sequence is coded.

The sequences of amino acid and that on the DNA can be very identical which what the question deals with here.

Biochemistry Question. Please help solve. Thank you! Based upon knowledge of oxidation of bioorganic compounds and howmuch energy is released during their oxidation, rank the following, from most to least, with respect to how much energy would be produced from each during their oxidation. Explain your placement for each one.
Biochemistry Question.For the metabolism of amino acids what is the first step for theirbreakdown? Why is it necessary for this breakdown product to be transported to the liver? For the catabolism of the carbon backbone of these amino acids, there are 7 entry points into the “standard” metabolic pathways. List these 7 entry points and which amino acids are metabolized to these entry points. Please help. Thank you!
Biochemistry Question. Please help. Thank you.   You are studying pyruvate utilization in mammals for ATP production under aerobic conditions and have synthesized pyruvate with Carbon #1 labelled with radioactive C14.   After only one complete cycle of the TCA cycle, which of the TCA cycle intermediates would be labeled with C14? Explain your answer.   Interestingly, you find C14 being excreted in the urine. How does it get there?
