Question 1
Which of the following reaction types is not catalyzed by cobalamin enzymes?
- Ligation of bonds between DNA bases
- Intramolecular rearrangements
- Methylations
- Reduction of ribonucleotides
- All of these are reaction types catalyzed by cobalamins
Explanation: Cobalamin enzymes are B12-dependent enzymes. This type of enzyme catalyzes methylations, intramolecular rearrangements, and reduction of ribonucleotides. However, it is not associated with the ligation of the hydrogen bonds between DNA bases.
