Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mechanism of transamination with pyridoxal phosphate is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Transamination reactions are involved in the degradation of amino acids. Here, an amino group is transferred to a ketoacid and a new amino acid is formed, particularly in the conversion of the essential to nonessential amino acid. Pyridoxal phosphate is a coenzyme mainly involved in the transamination reaction.
