Question
Chapter 23.5, Problem 23.12P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason for enzyme used to convert succinate to fumarate to be known as succinate dehydrogenase needs to be explained.
Concept introduction:
An organic conversion is defined as the conversion of organic compound to other organic compound using organic reagents in one or more than one steps. In laboratory these conversions required different reagents and in body required enzymes and co-enzymes such as NAD+ and NADH.
