Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The B vitamin precursor for the coenzyme, PLP 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 B vitamin precursor for the coenzyme, TPP 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
