    if you are a biochemist, or reading biochemistry ..it is important to understand structural transitions of metabolites..but from your question, I am not able to understand wherether you are asking for enzyme structures or metabolites??? if you are asking to memorize enzyme structures that is not essential bcz in enzyme portion you need to understand the active site residues and their mechanism of enzymes action, e.g. Lysozyme is having Aspartate and Glutamate at their active sites and mostly questions come around oxonium ion mechanism basically. second class of enzymes called Serine proteases including chymotrypsin, trypsin, elastase etc. they all have catalytic triad charge relay system..HSD amino acids.
