Question
Chapter 24, Problem 26P
Interpretation Introduction
(a)
Interpretation:
The reason due to which an isomerase enzyme is used in the conversion of mannose-6-phosphate to fructose-6-phosphate needs to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
- Enzymes are biological catalysts that
speed up the reactions taking place within the cells. - Isomers are the compounds with same molecular formula but different arrangement of atoms.
- Mannose (C6H12O6) is −
- Fructose (C6H12O6) is −
