- There is another class of aldolase enzymes known as Class II. These enzymes are found in fungi, algae, and some bacteria. This class differs for Class I in that these enzymes do not have a Lys residue associated with their active sites, but contain a divalent cation (usually Zn2+ or Fe2+) in the active site. Outline a possible mechanism for a Class II aldolase and explain the function of the metal ion in the reaction.b) Why might the compound shown below act as a transition state analog of phosphoglucose isomerase? A drawing of the normal transition state for this enzyme is needed. HO- OH T .N -OH -OH CH₂OPO₂²-The side chain of acetyl-L-lysine-OMe has a pKa=10.5 and its acid-dissociation reaction is shown below. see attachment for Question D.
- Show the de novo synthesis of capric acid. Please help me with this illustration thank youProtease is an enzyme that catalyzes the breaking of amide bonds which is very stable at “mild” conditions, namely body temperature and pH 7 (if done in the lab requires hot conditions, concentrated HCl for hours). Some proteases have two aspartic acid residues at their active sites. Write the reaction mechanism (which follows general acid-base catalysis)What kind of inhibitor is threo-sphingosine? Explain this type of inhibition.

If the enzyme is found in the lysosome (pH = 5.2), which residue will act as the general acid and which will act as the general base during the initial steps of the reaction? Explain your reasoning. (Acid phosphatases are an important group of enzymes that can be detected in human blood serum.

- Ethylene glycol (HO−CH2−CH2−OH) is a major component of antifreeze. In the body, it is first converted to HOOC−CHO (oxoethanoic acid) and then to HOOC−COOH (oxalic acid), which is toxic. What class of enzyme catalyzes both of the reactions of ethylene glycol? The treatment for the ingestion of ethylene glycol is an intravenous solution of ethanol. How might this help prevent toxic levels of oxalic acid in the body?The active site of an enzyme that uses a general acid-base catalytic mechanism contains a Glu and an Asp residue (both of which are essential for catalysis) with pKa values of 5.9 and 4.5, respectively.

Acid phosphatases are produced and can be detected in erythrocytes, kidney, spleen, the liver, and prostate gland. The enzyme from the prostate gland is clinically important because an increased activity in the blood is frequently an indication of cancer of the prostate gland.
