Which one of the following compounds has the structural pattern of the naturally occurring fats or oils? a) The ester below was combined with isotopically labelled water, as indicated by the dot below, in the presence of catalytic hcl. Which of the following mechanistic steps are not part of the mechanism for the. In nature, biotin is used as a : reducing agent, dehydrating agent, carbonyl transfer agent, oxidizing agent, hydrating agent. Write out a detailed mechanism for enzyme-catalyzed the carboxylation of biotin, starting from hco3. In fatty-acid biosynthesis, acetyl coa is converted into malonyl coa. In all cases ha or b are part of an enzyme active site, and r is the rest of nadph. The enzyme secondary alcohol dehydrogenase uses nadp+ to perform the reversible oxidation of isopropanol to acetone. Which one of the following shows the correct mechanism of oxidation? (oxidation occurs in a manner that is the reverse of acetone reduction by nadph).
