amino-acid racemization
41Hydroxylation — is a chemical process that introduces a hydroxyl group ( OH) into an organic compound. In biochemistry, hydroxylation reactions are often facilitated by enzymes called hydroxylases. Hydroxylation is the first step in the oxidative degradation of… …
42Acetylation — Salicylic acid is acetylated to form aspirin Acetylation (or in IUPAC nomenclature ethanoylation) describes a reaction that introduces an acetyl functional group into a chemical compound. (Deacetylation is the removal of the acetyl group.)… …
