Chapter 22, Problem 61(choose chapter or problem)
Biochemical oxidation of aromatic rings is catalyzed by a group of liver enzymescalled aryl hydroxylases. Part of this chemical process is the conversion of toxic aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene into water-soluble phenols, which can be easily excreted. However,the primary purpose of the enzyme is to enable the synthesis of biologically useful compounds,such as the amino acid tyrosine.CH2CHCOOHANH2CH2CHCOOHANH2O2, hydroxylaseOHPhenylalanine Tyrosine
