Question

End Of Chapter, Problem 78a Get help answering Molecular Drawing a A vitamin K-dependent enzyme catalyzes the modification of glutamate residues in the amino-terminal domain of prothrombin to produce Y-carboxyglutamate. Draw the structure of a y-carboxyglutamate amino acid. For your answer, follow these guidelines: 1. Draw the unionized version of the amino acid. 2. Do not abbreviate any carboxylic acid groups; for example, do not use COOH. 3. Use abbreviation R for terminals. Edit
