42 of 50 ■ Unsure 51241 Clear my choice Mark Defects in enzymes can have serious metabolic consequences. The table below shows the profile of four different patients presenting with metabolite levels that differ from normal expected ranges. PATIENT PROFILE W PATIENT PROFILE X Increased ATP synthesis. PATIENT PROFILE Y Decreased lactate. Elevated ammonia. PATIENT PROFILE Z Increased fatty acyl- CoA in mitochondria. Observed metabolic changes Decreased glycolysis. Decreased Decreased oxidation of Increased liver fatty acids. glutamate. oxaloacetate levels. An investigation revealed one patient harboured mutations in the enzymes arginase and carnitine acyltransferase 2, negatively affecting each enzyme's function. Which patient can this be attributed to? Select one: a. patient W b. patient Y c. patient X O d. patient Z + Report question issue Notes
