Chapter 23: Q4p (page 1072)

How many conjugated double bonds are there in

a. FAD?

b. FADH2

Short Answer

Expert verified

Pyrrole is a much stronger acid than ammonia because of resonance.

Step by step solution

01

Conjugate bonds

Conjugated bonds mean presence of alternated single and double bonds. These bonds take part in resonance too.

02

Conjugate bonds in FAD

From the below given structure it can be seen that seven conjugate bonds are present as all the double bonds are alternate to single bond.

FAD structure

03

Conjugate bonds in

As it can be seen here only five conjugate bonds are present. Three in left ring, and two in right ring. The bond CO present between two NH is not alternate to one single bond instead has two single bonds before it so is not a conjugate bond.

Question: Answer the following:

a. What coenzyme transfers an acyl group from one substrate to another?

b. What is the function of FAD in the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex?

c. What is the function of NAD+ in the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex?

d. What reaction necessary for proper blood clotting is catalyzed by vitamin KH2?

e. What coenzymes are used for decarboxylation reactions?

f. What kinds of substrates do the decarboxylating coenzymes work on?

g. What coenzymes are used for carboxylation reactions?

h.What kinds of substrates do the carboxylating coenzymes work on?

Explain why the ability of PLP to catalyze an amino acid transformation is greatly reduced if the OH substituent of pyridoxal phosphate is replaced by OCH3.

Which compound is more easily decarboxylated?

Acetolactate synthase is another TPP-requiring enzyme. It transfers the acyl group of pyruvate to another molecule of pyruvate, forming acetolactate. This is the first step in the biosynthesis of the amino acids valine and leucine. Propose a mechanism for this reaction.

Question:Five coenzymes are required by -ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, the enzyme in the citric acid cycle that converts -ketoglutarate to succinyl-CoA.

a. Identify the coenzymes.

b.Propose a mechanism for the reaction.
