Question
Chapter 23, Problem 28P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The way by which deficiency of arginine succinate synthetase can be removed should be determined.
Name the molecules that eliminate the nitrogen out of the body should be determined.
Concept introduction:
The urea cycle is a series of biochemical reactions which involve the formation of urea (NH2)2CO from the ammonia (NH3). It is also known as the ornithine cycle. It helps in the excretion of toxic ammonia by converting into urea. This cycle takes place in ureotelic organisms.

I. Active site analysis.
Below is a diagram of a putative active site for Monoamine oxidase. As we learned, the purpose of
tertiary structure is to form a scaffold so you can orient just a few amino acids in the right orientation
to promote binding and/or catalysis. The position where this occurs is the active site. The amino acid
architecture of an active site is designed to bind substrates. Amino acid side chains are capable of
hydrogen bonding, ionic and hydrophobic interactions. Fill in each amino acid that you think is
suitable for interacting with the part of the substrate it is closest to. Assume the pH will be at 7.0
