  #1

can we please start a thread for rate limiting reactions..

any one who remembers any reaction(with surity) .please list.

i think we shud concentrate on just the name of the enzymes, not their regulators etc or it wud be too complicated.

such a list if reviewed frequently will be a great help

thanx

2 rhymes with NEW.
To make NEW pyramidine (de novo pyramidine synthesis), you need CPS-II.

CPS-I is no fun.
Urea (piss or urine sample) is not fun to deal with.

way too sleepy now...ok one reqd B12, the other B6...cant remember which amino acid it was...
homocysteine, methionine or cyst...
sorry

ok i checked it
5. enzyme homocysteine -->cystathionine
6.homocydteine --> methionine

ans 5. B6
