NADP+ NADPHH HC-OH HO-CH HC-OH нс-ОН CH2OPO;? 6PGDH 'Coz CH OH c=0 HC-OH HC-OH CHOPO3 In pentose phosphate pathway, 6-phosphogluconate undergoes oxidation and decarboxylation by 6- phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6PGDH) to form D-ribulose 5-phosphate. The reaction generates NADPH, as shown in the scheme. (1) Fill the blanks. During the 6PGDH-catalyzed reaction, the A group of carbon (B) of 6-phosphogluconate is oxidized to the group in ribulose 5-phosphate. A: (name of the functional group). B: (carbon numbering) C: (name of the functional...
Why Pythagoras wouldn’t eat Falafel: A story about Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD) Deficiency Fava beans, an ingredient of falafel, have been an important food source in the Mediterranean and Middle East since antiquity. The Greek philosopher and mathematician Pythagoras prohibited his followers from dining on fava beans, perhaps because they made many people sick with a, sometimes fatal, condition called favism. In favism, erythrocytes begin to lyse 24-48hrs after ingestion of the beans, releasing free haemoglobin into the blood. Jaundice and...

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
