| 11. | The enzyme cyclizes farnesyl diphosphate to delta-cadinene and releases pyrophosphate.
|
| 12. | Examples of trans-prenyltranferases include dimethylallyltranstransferase, and geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate synthase.
|
| 13. | The loss of pyrophosphate forms an allylic carbocation on dimethylallyl.
|
| 14. | DUT interacts with dUTP to catalyze its hydrolysis into dUMP and pyrophosphate.
|
| 15. | The formation of farnesyl pyrophosphate is via the mevalonate pathway.
|
| 16. | Geranyl pyrophosphate ( GPP ) is the precursor for iridoids.
|
| 17. | Geranyl pyrophosphate is a major branch point for terpenoid synthesis.
|
| 18. | Both synthesize histidine from the biochemical intermediate phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate.
|
| 19. | In toothpaste and dental floss, tetrasodium pyrophosphate acts as a plaque reduction.
|
| 20. | LPP then forms a resonance-stable cation by losing its pyrophosphate group.
