Biochemistry Notes: Transamination, Fatty Acids, Amino Acids, and Protein Metabolism, Quizzes of Zoology

Various terms and definitions related to transamination, fatty acids, amino acids, and protein metabolism. Topics include the role of vitamins in transamination, the formation of malonyl-coa, the synthesis of fatty acids, the conversion of propionate to succinyl-coa, essential and unsaturated fatty acids, and the functions of different enzymes in protein digestion and metabolism.

What you will learn

  • What is the role of vitamin B in transamination?
  • What is the role of the urea cycle in the body?
  • What are the essential fatty acids for cats?
