Compare coenzymes with substrates. how do they work together in enzyme catalysis

1 answer:

7 0

Coenzymes are organic or inorganic molecules that help in the catalysis process, while the substrate is the substance that is acted upon by the enzyme. Coenzymes work by converting enzymes into an active form from an inactive one. The enzyme then acts on the substrate and either breaks it down or builds it up into a different molecule, which varies from enzyme to enzyme.

A nucleotide consists of a phosphate group, a pentose sugar, and a __________________, all linked together by covalent bonds. po

solong [7]

Answer:

d. nitrogen-containing base .

Explanation:

A nucleotide comprises a phosphate group, a pentose sugar and a nitrogenous base (nitrogen-containing base).

A nitrogenous base is a type of aromatic heterocyclic organic compound which essentially has nitrogen in it. The base can be a purine or pyrimidine. Purine nitrogenous bases are adenine (A) and guanine (G) while pyrimidine nitrogenous bases are cytosine (C), thiamine (T) and uracil (U).

Till the time a base is not attached to covalently linked phosphate group and a pentose sugar, it is known as nucleoside. But as soon as we attach any nitrogenous base to the nucleoside, a nucleotide is formed. So it means a nucleotide is nucleoside + nitrogenous base.

Examples are as under:

A nucleotide which has adenine as nitrogenous base is known as adenosine triphosphate (ATP) while a nucleotide which has guanine as nitrogenous base is known as Guanosine-5'-triphosphate (GTP).
