The aminotransferase reaction,in which an enzyme-PLP Schiff base forms,
(I)is ATP dependent.
(II)results in formation of a hydroxylaldehyde.
(III)results in formation of an $\alpha$-ketoacid.
(IV)requires an active site lysine.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The aminotransferase reaction involves the formation of an enzyme-PLP Schiff base, which is a key intermediate in the reaction. The reaction results in the formation of a ketoacid and an amino acid, and it requires an active site lysine. The reaction is not ATP dependent and does not result in the formation of a hydroxylaldehyde.
