Question

sapling earning (a) Identify the group in pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) that Covalently binds enzyme and substrate OH CH3 (b) Aminotransferases (transaminases) must deaminate one amino acid and add an amino group to another amino acid during transamination. How do the two processes differ? O The second part of the reaction takes place at a separate amino acid residue in the active site The first reaction involves the formation of a Schiff base, whereas the second does not. C The second part of the reaction (adding an amino group) is the reverse of the first (deamination) o The coenzyme amino group from the first amino acid amino group before it can catalyze the PLP must be activated by an external removal of the
