Protein Metabolism

Describe the mechanism of transportation of ammonia. Describe the urea cycle and its regulation. Give the biochemical basis of ammonia toxicity Outline important products synthesized from tyrosine What is the difference between CPS1 and CPS 2? Glutamate plays a central role in amino acid metabolism. Tryptophan deficiency causes pellagra like symptoms. Transport Disorders of amino acid metab Important products synthesised from tryptophan Urea cycle Nh3 transport in blood requires a carrier Argininosuccinase CPS 2 7 alpha hydroxylase Imp compounds synthesized from methionine and cystine High levels of homocysteine are atherogenic How does ammonia detoxification in brain differ from that in liver Catabolism and specialized products synthesized from methionine Synthesis of nad+ and nadp+ from tryptophan
