Question
Chapter 24.5, Problem 3P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The mechanism for the reaction between glycerol and ATP results in the formation of glycerol-3-phosphate should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Glycerol:
The catabolism of fat which actually contain 3
Glycerol is polyol compound which is actually the base of all lipids.
Adenosine triphosphate ATP: The main job of ATP is to store energy and release it when cell is in need of energy.
Kinase: It is enzyme which serves as a catalyst in reaction of transferring phosphoryl group into the substrate.
Substrate: The molecule where the reaction takes place with help of enzymes.
