Question
Chapter 22, Problem 9P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
ATP yield by the complete oxidation of heptadecanoic fatty acid should be determined.
Concept introduction:
The fatty acids are degraded in a sequential manner that is two carbon units at the carboxyl end of the molecule are removed in each step. The process of beta-oxidation of fatty acids takes place inside the mitochondria, and it includes the oxidation of beta carbon of the fatty acids.

Instructions.
Given each set of information which may include common name(s) and the reaction catalyzed, you are required to identify the main class of the specific enzyme described.
Name: citryl-CoA synthetase
Reaction: ATP + citrate + CoA = ADP + phosphate + (3S)-citryl-CoA
Name: D-xylulose reductase
Reaction: xylitol + NAD+ = D-xylulose + NADH + H+
Name: cellobiose phosphorylase
Reaction: cellobiose phosphate = α-D-glucose 1-phosphate + D-glucose
Name: carbonic anhydrase
Reaction: H2CO3 = CO2 + H2O
Other info: The enzyme catalyzes the reversible hydration of gaseous CO2 to carbonic acid, which dissociates to give hydrogencarbonate above neutral pH.
Name: pantoate activating enzyme
Reaction: ATP + (R)-pantoate = AMP + diphosphate + (R)-pantothenate.
