MECHANISM Problem

 L-Glutamic acid is a common amino group donor for the biosynthesis of new amino acids from their corresponding ketoacid. During the pyridoxal phosphate (PLP)-dependent transamination process, L-glutamic acid is converted to 2-oxoglutaric acid (a ketoacid). Please draw out detailed arrow-push mechanism for aspartate transaminase-catalyzed formation of L-aspartic acide from oxaloacetic acid. (10 pts). Please also draw out the detailed arrow-push mechanism for the formation of L-glutamic acid from 2-oxoglutaric acid via a reductive amination process catalyzed byglutamate dehydrogenase in bacteria (6 pts).
