Question
Chapter 23, Problem 17P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
A reaction scheme to show the product of the acyl-CoA dehydrogenase reaction that reacts with FAD should be written.
Concept Introduction:
Hypoglycin is a toxic amino acid and a metabolite and it acts as a acyl-CoA dehydrogenase substrate. For this reaction, the product acts as an irreversible inhibitor for acyl CoA dehydrogenase. It inhibits the enzyme by reacting with FAD.

- Understanding the Oxidation of Glucose and Its Products in the TCA Cycle Glycolysis, the pyruvate dehydrogenase reaction, and the TCA cycle result in complete oxidation of a molecule of glucose to CO2. Review the calculation of oxidation numbers for individual atoms in any molecule, and then calculate the oxidation numbers of the carbons of glucose, pyruvate, the acetyl carbons of acetyl-CoA. and the metabolites of the TCA cycle to convince yourself that complete oxidation of glucose involves removal of 24 electrons and that each acetyl-CoA through the TCA cycle gives up 8 electrons.arrow_forwardExtending the Mechanism of Methylmalonyl-CoA Mutase to Similar Reactions Based on the mechanism for the methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (see problem 14), write reasonable mechanisms for the following reactions shown.arrow_forwardUnderstanding the Stoichiometry of Cholesterol Synthesis Write a Balanced, stoichiometric reaction for the synthesis of cholesterol from acetyl-CoA.arrow_forward

It is a strong reductant involved in many anabolic reactions, including [ Select ] ["fatty acid and cholesterol biosynthesis", "regeneration of citrate cycle components"]as well as the recycling of glutathione to remove [ Select ] ["excess biotin", "reactive oxygen species"] generated during metabolism. Glutathione is a tripeptide that forms a dimer upon reduction of its substrate, and restoring it to a monomeric form requires the reducing power of NADPH. The importance of NADPH in this pathway is demonstrated by a genetic disorder affecting [ Select ] ["glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase", "malate dehydrogenase"] , an enzyme that generates NADPH in red blood cells. These individuals are prone to [ Select ] ["leukemia", "hemolytic anemia"] when they are exposed to drugs or stresses requiring the protective chemistry of glutathione.arrow_forward
