Question
Chapter 24, Problem 33P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Another carrier of one carbon unit.
Concept introduction:
Cofactors are the chemical compounds, basically, metallic ions, that are required by the enzymes to increase their metallic activities. There are two types of cofactors, organic cofactors, and inorganic cofactors. Organic cofactors include heme, and flavin groups, while inorganic cofactors are metallic ions.

. Provide an explanation for the fact that a-D-mannose is more stable
than B-D-mannose, whereas the opposite is true for glucose.
Amino acid alanine
The reaction in which glucose 6-phosphate (G6P) is converted to fructose 6-phosphate (F6P) is an example of an isomerization reaction. Notice that both molecules have the molecular formula C6H13O9P. The isomerization is catalyzed by glucose 6-phosphate isomerase.
This is a reversible reaction in cells, with a moderately negative ΔG, but a very high activation energy. If you have a flask that contains a solution containing cellular concentrations of G6P and F6P, but no enzyme, how will the concentration of each molecule change over time?
