On the basis of the classification given in Section 15.2, decide to which group each of the following enzymes belongs: (a) Phosphoglyceromutase ?OOC—CH—CH?—OPO?²? | OH 3-Phosphoglycerate ? ?OOC—CH—CH?—OH | OPO?²? 2-Phosphoglycerate (b) Urease O ? H?N—C—NH? + H?O ? 2NH? + CO? Urea (c) Succinate dehydrogenase ?OOC—CH?—CH?—COO? + FAD Succinate Coenzyme (oxidized form) H COO? / ? C=C + FADH? / ?OOC H Fumarate Coenzyme (reduced form)

Step 1
Phosphoglyceromutase catalyzes the conversion of 3-phosphoglycerate to 2-phosphoglycerate, which is a rearrangement of the phosphate group within the molecule. Urease catalyzes the hydrolysis of urea into ammonia and carbon dioxide. Succinate dehydrogenase Show more…
