Question
Chapter 11, Problem 36P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The specificity of sucrose is to be explained on the basis of potential substrates.
Concept introduction:
Sucrose is a disaccharide that is formed by the combination of the substrates glucose and fructose. These substrates combine with each other in the presence of certain enzymes.

L-Dopa (Levodopa) is an oral medication used to treat
Parkinson's disease, the symptoms of which result from a
lack of dopamine in the brain. L-Dopa relies on L-type, or
leucine-preferring, transport proteins to cross the blood-brain barrier,
and it is converted to dopamine in the brain by the enzyme
aromatic-L-amino-acid decarboxylase.
Properties of L-Dopa:
density: 1.47 g/cm
• melting point: 278 °C
• boiling point: decomposes
solubility in water: low solubility
• solubility in lipids: low solubility
• rotates plane-polarized light counterclockwise
Classify each property based on whether it is or is not a property of
L-Dopa's enantiomer, D-Dopa.
Glycerophospholipids Phosphatidylethanolamine
1. classify the fatty acids as essential or non-essential and also as saturated, monounsaturated, or polyunsaturated.
2. Calculate the net ATP yield per fatty acid after complete oxidation. Show your solution using a table of pathways, reducing equivalents, and ATP
3. In case the cell is in a state requiring large amount of ATP to support energy-requiring reactions/pathways, assuming that you have 1 mole of each of the said lipids are catabolized and complete oxidized, will the total net ATP yield from these two lipids be higher or lower than the sum of the net ATPs generated from each fatty acid components? Justify your answer in biochemical terms and using 5 sentences or less.
