What would the enzyme and acid-catalyzed reaction potential-energy diagrams look like? Explain the following enzyme and what type of reaction they catalyze: (a) Isocitrate dehydrogenase (b) Cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (c) Lactase What kind of rea...
In the glycolytic pathway, one glucose molecule is broken down, and during the reaction, two ATP molecules are generated. The reaction can be represented as:C6H12O6 + 2 NAD+ + 2 ADP + 2 H3PO4 → 2 NADH + 2 C3H4O3 + 2 ATP + 2 H2O + 2 H+ Citric Acid Cycle In mitochondria, ...
If 3 molecules of ribosome are converted to pyruvate, how many ATP and NADH will be formed? Various monosaccharides are catabolized by converting them into glucose or an intermediate in glycolysis. Consider the metabolism of mannose. a. What type of reaction is required to get mannose into glyc...

When NAD+/NADH works as a little train delivering packages of electrons, it is called an oxidation-reduction reaction, or redox reaction for short. As an essential electron transporter, NAD+ facilitates metabolic processes including: Glycolysis: This is a 10-step metabolic pathway that converts ...
Dinitro is defined as with two nitrogen groups per molecule. An example of dinitro is dinitrobenzene, which is an isomeric compound formed by the reaction
In particular, it was shown [83,84] that cAMP is generated inside mitochondria by the action of soluble adenylyl cyclase, and this reaction produces the pyrophosphates that drive quantum brain computation. 3.3. Quantum Cognition and Autism The following set of unproven statements are worth pursuing...
This leads to the formation of nicotinamide and D-ribose. The glycosidic bond cleavage is influenced by temperature, with an increase of approximately 10 °C, resulting in a doubling of the rate. The reaction is facilitated by the assistance of the sugar moiety, which forms an oxocarbenium ...
to convert MTT into formazan, thus color formation serves as a useful and convenient marker of only the viable cells. The exact cellular mechanism of MTT reduction into formazan is not well understood, but likely involves reaction with NADH or similar reducing molecules that transfer electrons to ...
We can distinguish peptones from proteoses through the reaction between ammonium sulfate. Generally, proteoses can precipitate from a solution consisting of both peptones and proteoses after adding ammonium sulfate whereas peptones cannot precipitate in a similar manner. Peptones cannot react even with...
