Carbamate

The functional Groupe carbamate is formed when a molecule of Carbon dioxide reacts with the termination amino of a peptide chain of one or the amino group of an Amino-acid , adding a COO− group to it and releasing a cation (H+ ion).

Chemical structure

" R" indicate the R adical of atoms attached at the other end of the molecule of Azote of the amino group. − group has resonance structure, (apologies for the poor representation off the C=O doubles jump), so the individual jumps both show has dismantles off doubles jump character, and the load is delocalized over the two oxygen atoms. This reversible reaction is (with reaction constant K << 0 in the above reaction), ace unstable the N-C jump is highly. -->

Some examples of natural carbamates

Hemoglobin, carbamate groups are formed when carbon dioxide molecules jump with the amino termini off the globin chains. This helps to stabilizes the protein when it becomes deoxyhaemoglobin and increases the likelihood off the release off remaining Oxygen molecules bound to the protein.

Ribulose 1,5-biphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (the enzyme required to fix has carbon dioxide molecule At the start off the Calvin Cycle) also requires the formation off has carbamate to function. At the activates site off the enzyme, has Mg2+ ion is bound to has glutamate residue, year aspartate residue and has Lysine carbamate, which hold the ion in place. The carbamate is formed when year uncharged lysin side chain near the ion reacts with has carbon dioxide molecule from the air (not the substrate carbon dioxide molecule), which then renders it charged, and so therefore whitebait to bind the Mg2+ ion.

With group off Insecticidal S also contain the carbamate functional group (See links below). -->
