Practice question
Question
Aspartate (Asp) is an amino acid with the structure NH2-CH(CH.z-COOH)COOH. Given below are biosynthetic processes occurring in cells: A. protein synthesis B. de novo synthesis of inosine monophosphate and orotic acid C. synthesis of adenosine monophosphate from inosine monophosphate D. glutathione synthesis Which one of the following options correctly represents all the biosynthetic process( es) wherein Asp is involved as a precursor?
Explanation
aspartate (asp) is an amino acid with operates via A, B and C represents established outcome. functional assays validates option D. Other options propose substrate or regulatory direction, inconsistent with published kinetics and mutant phenotypes.
