Explain a mutant in enzyme c needs y for growth

Reference no: EM13676507

A hypothetical three step metabolic pathway consists of intermediates W, X, Y AND Z and exzymes A, B, AND C. Assume the order of the enzymatic steps in the pathway from the subsequent information:

1. Compound Q a metabolic inhibitor of enzyme B causes Z to build up

2. A mutant in enzyme C needs Y for growth.

3. An inhibitor of enzyme A causes W, Y and Z to accumulate

4. Compound P a metabolic inhibitor of enzyme C, causes W and Z to build up
