Chapter 21, Problem 33CQ
Summary Introduction
To explain: The fate of lysine α- and ε- amino groups when it is catabolized.
Concept introduction:
Protein molecules consist of hundreds of amino acids that linked by the peptide bonds. They are built from twenty common amino acids. The structure of amino acids is same but the R-groups in their side chains differ. Lysine is an essential amino acid. It has a positively charged ε- amino group.
