(a)
Interpretation: The group or atom transferred by the coenzymes containing B vitamin, niacin has to be identified.
Concept introduction: Vitamin-B is a water soluble vitamin. There are eight vitamins classified as Vitamin B on the basis of their biochemical function to act as a precursor for the enzyme cofactors. The eight vitamin B are: thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, pantothenic acid, vitamin
(b)
Interpretation: The group or atom transferred by the coenzymes containing B vitamin, biotin has to be identified.

- The first step of the metabolic process known as glycolysis is the conversion of glucose to glucose- 6-phosphate. This process has a positive value for rG' Glucose + Pi Glucose-6-phosphate + H2O rG' = +13.8 kJ/mol-rxn This reaction is coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP ATP + H2O ADP + Pi rG' = -30.5 kJ/mol-rxn What is the sum of these two equations and the value of rG' for the coupled reaction? Is the coupled reaction product-favored at equilibrium?arrow_forwardThe coenzyme forms of B vitamins are involved in the transfer of an atom or functional group from one molecule to another in metabolic reactions. Identify the atom or group transferred by coenzymes containing the following B vitamins. a. Thiamin b. Folate c. Pantothenic acid d. Vitamin B12arrow_forwardExplain why monitoring blood lactate levels might be a useful technique to gauge the amount of conditioning in an Olympic runner.arrow_forward
