The enzyme that catalyzes the Ca ¬ Cb bond cleavage reaction that converts serine to glycine removes thesubstituent (R) bonded to the a-carbon in the first step of the reaction. Starting with PLP bound to serine inan imine linkage, propose a mechanism for this reaction. (Hint: The first step involves removal of the protonfrom serine’s OH group.)
When d-fructose is dissolved in D2O and the solution is made basic, the d-fructose recovered from the solution has an average of 1.7 deuterium atomsattached to the C-1 carbon per molecule. Show the mechanism that accounts for the incorporation of these deuterium atoms into d-fructose.
Provide the mechanism for the reacrion below.

- A nonapeptide released by globulins in the blood in response to a waspsting. Hydrolysis gives the following amino acids: 2 Arg, Gly, 2 Phe, 3 Pro, and Ser.Edman degradation gives phenylthiohydantoin of Arg. Cleavage with carboxypeptidase gives Arg. Partial hydrolysis gives the following di- and tripeptides: Phe-Ser, Pro-GlyPhe, Pro-Pro, Ser-Pro-Phe, Phe-Arg, and Arg-Pro.
