Chapter 26, Problem 20P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

About the carbon atoms in which glucose would be most likely to end up as the 5-CH3 carbon in dTMP.

Concept introduction:

Folate, vitamin B12 and vitamin B6 and one carbon metabolism. The vitamins folacin, B12 and B6 and B2 are the supply of coenzymes that participate in one carbon metabolism. During this metabolism, a carbon unit from aminoalkanoic acid or glycine is transferred to tetrahydrofolate (THF) to create methylene-THF.
