Instructions. Given each set of information which may include common name(s) and the reaction catalyzed, you are required to identify the main class of the specific enzyme described. Name: citryl-CoA synthetase Reaction: ATP + citrate + CoA = ADP + phosphate + (3S)-citryl-CoA Name: D-xylulose reductase Reaction: xylitol + NAD+ = D-xylulose + NADH + H+ Name: cellobiose phosphorylase Reaction: cellobiose phosphate = α-D-glucose 1-phosphate + D-glucose Name: carbonic anhydrase Reaction: H2CO3 = CO2 + H2O Other info: The enzyme catalyzes the reversible hydration of gaseous CO2 to carbonic acid, which dissociates to give hydrogencarbonate above neutral pH. Name: pantoate activating enzyme Reaction: ATP + (R)-pantoate = AMP + diphosphate + (R)-pantothenate.
G. ENZYME CLASSIFICATION. Identify the main class of enzymes used to catalyzed the following reactions: 1. Lactate dehydrogenase: NADH+H NAD HC-OH CH3 CH Pynnte Lactate 2. Methylmalonyl-CoA mutase: CH CH SCOA CH,CH, SCOA coenzyme B12 COO COO methylmalonyl-CoA succinyl-CoA 3. Enolase: 0. H–Ċ–0–P–0- C-0–P-0- + H,0 HO–CH, CH 6 Phosphoenolpyruvate 2-Phosphoglycerate 4. Chymotrypsin: -0–CH,CH3 + H2O - RCOOH + HOCH,CH3 5. Pyruvate carboxylase: coo • co, • ATP + H,0 H-C-H . ADP + P, + 2H čoo CH, Pyruvate Oxaleacetate
