Enzymes are mainly proteins which when used in a reaction, they increase the speed of product formation.

Step by step solution

01

Enzyme

Enzymes are mainly proteins which when used in a reaction, they increase the speed of product formation.

02

NADH+ H+ role

NADH+ H+ is a reducing agent. It donates hydride ion from its forth position in reaction. It reduces ketone to secondary alcohol.

03

Final products of given reaction

As NADH+ H+will reduce the ketone to secondary alcohol so the products of reaction will be as follows:

Question: What is the source of the methyl group in thymidine?

Question:A fatty acid (a long straight-chain carboxylic acid with an even number of carbons) is metabolized to acetyl- CoA, which can then enter the citric acid cycle to be further metabolized (Section 24.9). A fatty acid with an odd number of carbons is metabolized to acetyl-CoA and one equivalent of propionyl-CoA. Propionyl-CoA cannot enter the citric acid cycle. Two coenzyme-requiring enzymes are needed to convert it to succinyl-CoA, a compound that can enter the citric acid cycle. Write the two enzyme-catalyzed reactions and include the names

of the required coenzymes.

Explain why the hydrogens of the C-8 methyl group are more acidic than those of the C-7 methyl group.
