- Assume that all carbon atoms and nitrogen atoms in both alanine and aspartate are labelled with radioisotopes. Then, the radioisotope-labelled alanine and aspartate molecules areallowed to undergo metabolism in the liver. All carbon atoms and nitrogen atoms in both ureaand glutamine are found to be labelled with radioisotopes. Please write down the metabolic reactions that lead to the incorporation of radioisotope-labelled carbon and nitrogen atoms into urea and glutamine.arrow_forwardCan u help me to explain to me, please?
