Uplоаd аn imаge оf yоur answer to this question. Draw the complete structure of a tripeptide (three amino acid residues) of your choice that contains an amino acid with a neutral R group capable of forming H-bonds (residue 1), a second amino acid with an R group that has an isopropyl structure (residue 2), a third amino acid with an R group containing two fused aromatic rings (residue 3). Label each amino acid with its three-letter code and assume a pH of 7.4.
Ureа Cycle Questiоns 32–44 Imаge Descriptiоn A diаgram оf the urea cycle, a critical metabolic pathway in the liver responsible for converting ammonia to urea, which is then excreted from the body. The diagram includes several numbered labels corresponding to various molecules, enzymes, and steps in the urea cycle. Let’s go through the numbers and their associated components in the urea cycle. Molecule 32 is produced by molecule 34 in the presence of the cofactor molecule 33. This reaction occurs simultaneously with the reaction of oxaloacetate into molecule 39. Molecule 33 refers to a cofactor necessary for the reaction that converts molecule 34 to 32. Molecule 34 is the product of glutamine reacting with molecule 36 and releasing a free ammonium. Molecule 35 is required and produced in the reaction where molecule 34 is converted into alpha-ketoglutarate. Molecule 36 is required for the conversion of glutamine into molecule 34 and a free ammonium. Molecule 37 is required and produced in the process of converting HCO3- into CO2-phosphate. Molecule 38 is required and produced in the process of converting amino-CO2 into carbamoyl phosphate (amino-CO2-phosphate). Molecule 39 is the product of a reaction involving oxaloacetate, in which molecule 34 is converted into molecule 32 in the presence of the cofactor molecule 33. Molecule 39 transfers from the matrix into the cytosol as molecule 41. Molecule 40 is required and produced in the process of citrulline being combined with molecule 41 to produce argininosuccinate.

Fаsting Stаte Liver—Glucаgоn Questiоns 21–31 Image Descriptiоn Metabolic processes during the fasting state, particularly in the liver under the influence of glucagon, involve several steps. Fatty acids in the cytosol are activated to form acyl-CoA in the presence of molecules 22 and 21. In the process, molecule 22 is consumed, while molecule 21 is converted into pyrophosphate. Molecule 23 serves as a shuttle to transport fatty acids between the cytosol and the matrix. Molecule 24 aids in the process of shortening the fatty acid chain by two carbons by converting a C-C single bond into a C=C double bond. Molecule 25 is added in order to convert the C=C double bond produced in the previous step into an alcohol group, creating a beta-hydroxy fatty acyl-CoA. Molecule 26 aids in the process of converting the product of the previous step, a beta-hydroxy fatty acyl CoA, into a beta-keto fatty acyl CoA. Molecule 27 is required for converting the product of the previous step, a beta-keto fatty acyl CoA, into two separate compounds: an acetyl CoA unit and a fatty acyl CoA that is two carbons shorter than when it began the process. Additionally: Molecule 28 is an enzyme involved in the breakdown of glycogen into glucose-1-phosphate. Molecule 29 is added in during the previous reaction of converting glycogen into glucose-1-phosphate. Molecule 30 is an enzyme that facilitates the conversion of glucose-1-phosphate to glucose-6-phosphate. Molecule 31 is produced as a byproduct when glucose 6-phosphate reacts with water, producing glucose.
