Protein Metabolism Flashcards
1
Q
Oxidative deamination: glutamate⇄
A
Glutamate dehydrogenase: glutamate + NAD(P)+ + H2O ⇄ α-ketoglutarate + NH4+ + NAD(P)H + H+
2
Q
Oxidative deamination: serine⇄
A
Serine dehydratase: serine + PLP ⇄ NH4+ + pyruvate
3
Q
Oxidative deamination: glutamine→
A
Glutaminase: glutamine + H2O → glutamate + ammonium (irreversible)
4
Q
Oxidative deamination: asparagine→
A
Asparaginase: asparagine + H2O → aspartate + ammonium (irreversible)
