Practice question
Question
The reaction of glutamate and ammonia to glutamine and water has a value of + 14 kJ mol-1 for ΔGo. This is coupled with the ATP reaction (ATP + H2O →ADP + phosphate). The ΔGo for this reaction is -30 kJ mol-1. The ΔGo (KJ mol-1) for the coupled reaction Glutamate + NH3 + ATP →Glutamine +ADP + Phosphate under equilibrium condition is
Explanation
the reaction of glutamate and ammonia to operates via -16 represents established outcome. functional assays validates option C. Other options propose substrate or regulatory direction, inconsistent with published kinetics and mutant phenotypes.
