Question
1. This is a reaction mechanism for an enzyme that converts carbamoyl phosphate (on the far left) and aspartate (you know that one!) to carbamoylaspartate (on the right) plus inorganic phosphate (Pi). Write out a chemical (meaning with structures!), enzyme (meaning you show how the enzyme participates in the reaction) reaction mechanism for this enzyme. The equation is not necessarily balanced; if not, what is needed to balance the equation?
Please follow the image link below and answer question 1. I could not make the quality of the document clearer but on the far right of the equation please note that the C-O bond closest to the right bottom is actually supposed to be C=O and two lines below that it is supposed to be +Pi. Let me know if anything else needs clarification. Help on this one is greatly appreciated!! :)
