Question
Chapter 15.6, Problem 3QQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: To determine the simplest pathways for amino acid biosynthesis in the human body.
Concept introduction: Transamination reaction is a biochemical reaction that involves the transfer of an amino group. In transamination reaction exchange of an amino group from an α-amino acid with a keto group of α-keto acid. There occurs no net loss or gain of amino acid in transamination reaction.
A biochemical reaction in which an α-amino acid is converted into α-keto acid along with the release of an ammonium ion is known as oxidative deamination reaction.
