What products are formed when all of the amide and ester bonds are hydrolyzed in each of the following compounds? Tamiflu[part (a)] is the trade name of the antiviral agent oseltamivir, thought to be the most effective agent in treating influenza.Governments are stockpiling the drug in the event of an influenza pandemic. Aspartame [part (b) is the artificial sweetenerused in Equal and many diet beverages. One of the products of this hydrolysis reaction is the amino acid phenylalanine. Infantsafflicted with phenylketonuria cannot metabolize this amino acid, so it accumulates, causing mental retardation. When theaffliction is identified early, a diet limiting the consumption of phenylalanine (and compounds like aspartame that are convertedto it) can make a normal life possible.Co,CH,CH3NH2b.

Sorbitol is a sweetener often substituted for cane sugar, because it is better tolerated by diabetics. It is also an intermediate in the commercial synthesis of vitamin C. Sorbitol is prepared by high-pressure hydrogenation of glucose over a nickel catalyst. What is the structure (including stereochemistry) of sorbitol?
The net charge on the most prevalent form of bisphosphoglycerate in blood is what?
With the following amino acid side chain can the side chain of threonine form hydrogen bonds? Q.) Phenylalanine
One of the main sources of sphingosine in the body is in the cell membrane. What complication could arise from the biological synthesis of ceramide?
Naturally occurring D-glucose is one of a pair of enantiomers. Its mirror image is L-glucose. Draw the two cyclic six-membered isomers of L-glucose that differ in the configuration around C1 and indicate which is a and which is B.
Penicillin G is a natural antibiotic that is useful for treating infections caused by Gram positive bacteria. What is the functional benefit of the semi-synthetic antimicrobials carbenicillin and ampicillin, generated by chemical modification of the R group so their R groups each are a bit different than the R group seen with penicillin G?
Dehalogenase enzymes catalyze the clevage of C-X bonds. One such dehalogenase catalyzes the following reaction. An active site aspartate is thought to carry out the initial nucleophilic attack that expels the chloride. Select the most likely intermediate in the reaction. (Note the stereochemistry.
