Enzymology Questions & answers

Enzyme - correct answer-A PROTEIN that acts as a biochemical CATALYST by affecting the rate at which a reaction proceeds. Substrate - correct answer-The material acted on by the enzyme Product - correct answer-The material produced as the result of an enzyme acting upon a substrate. 1. Enzyme binds to substrate at their active site 2. [ES] complex brings substrate molecule into proper alignment with enzyme 3. Products are formed and the free enzyme can combine with excess free substrate ...

What is dogma in enzymology? - One reaction only has one enzyme to catalyse it What happens during a chemical reaction? - Activation energy provides enough energy for the process to happen where the reactants break or form bonds and create a new product What is transition state? - A less stable state that the products have to go through to get to the final product What is activation energy? - Energy needed to reach transition state and the rate of the reaction depends on how many reaction ...

Active Site - Attachment of substrate Often a water-free cavity Pouch-like Substrate - Substance acted upon enzyme Also called as chemical reactant Allosteric Site - Another cavity, other molecule other than substrate (inhibitors) May bind regulator molecules and,thereby. Be significant to the basic enzyme structure Place where the regulator bind

An enzyme maybe defined as a: - Biological catalysts The Michaelis-Menten Constant in the rate of conversion of substrate to product is determined by: - Substrate concentration and rate of dissociation of enzyme-substrate complex Isoenzyme - The electrophoretic property is different for each isoenzyme Isoenzymes are performed to improve - specificity The protein portion of an enzyme complex is called - Apoenzyme Lactate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase and hydr...
