Question
Chapter 26, Problem 37P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The difference between the function of Cytidine triphosphate or CTP in the formation of phosphoglyceride with the function of Uridine-5'-triphosphate or UTP in the formation of glycogen should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Phospholipids are the basic constituent of all cell membranes. They usually form lipid bilayers. The structure of a phospholipid molecule has a tail made up of two hydrophobic fatty acid and a hydrophilic head comprising of a phosphate group.
