The
Introduction:
Proteins are organic molecules that are made up of amino acids. Amino acid sequences determine the protein structures and its function. The amino acid consists of amino group and carboxyl group along with the hydrogen atom and functional group (designated by R).
b.
To determine:
The metabolic substrate that can be produced from the carbon atoms of isoleucine.
