The first step in the catabolism of amino acids is the removal of the nitrogen as ammonia, forming a keto acid that can enter on

e of the carbon catabolic pathways. The alpha-keto acid pyruvate can be formed from the amino acids alanine, cysteine, glycine, serine and threonine. Consider the route for alanine catabolism. Anine reacts with to produce pyruvate and. This reaction is catalyzed by aspartate aminotransferase. alanine aminotransferase. alanine dehydrogenase. The substrate for the first step can be regenerated by reacting with NAD^+ This reaction is catalyzed by glutamate dehydrogenase. alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase. alanine dehydrogenase. aspartate dehydrogenase. The coenzyme/prosthetic group required in the first reaction is thiamine pyrophosphate. biotin. pyridoxal phosphate. lipoic acid.

How do mirnas function in controlling gene expression? view available hint(s) how do mirnas function in controlling gene express
kirill115 [55]
I believe the miRNAs control gene expression by binding to mRNAs and degrading them or blocking their translation. The microRNAs are short non coding RNAs which function to regulate the process of gene expression. They bind to the 3-UTR of the target mRNAs and repress the production of protein by destabilizing the mRNA and translational silencing.
