The 2 in front of the oxygen gas and the 2 in front of the water vapor are called the reaction coefficients. They indicate the number of each chemical species that reacts or is formed. Methane and oxygen (oxygen is a diatomic â two-atom â element) are the reactants, while carbon dioxide and water are the products.
Pyrophosphatase (or inorganic pyrophosphatase) is an enzyme (EC 3.6.1.1) that catalyzes the conversion of one molecule of pyrophosphate to two phosphate ions.he functionality of this enzyme plays a critical role in lipid metabolism (including lipid synthesis and degradation), calcium absorption and bone formation, and DNA synthesis, as well as other biochemical transformations.
Figure-4-The Î±-amino group of a substrate amino acid displaces the enzyme lysine, to form a Schiff base linkage to PLP. Figure-5- A different a-keto acid reacts with PMP (Pyridoxamine phosphate) and the process reverses, to complete the reaction. Figure-6 -Overall reaction showing the role of B6-Phosphate, the transfer of Î±-amino group from donor amino acid to Pyridoxal phosphate forms Pyridoxamine phosphate, and a keto acid.
