What else can I help you with?
What is an active site and where is it located?
A region on an enzyme that binds to a protein or other substance during a reaction
What is a specific enzyme?
A specific enzyme is an enzyme that only changes the speed of ONE reaction. (It only acts on one particular substance that happens to be compatible with that enzyme) i.e. if enzyme A is specific to reaction A, it will change the speed of reaction A. However it will have no effect on any other reaction like reaction B or C.
Is a new enzyme molecule needed each time a reaction occurs?
yep
Do enzymes change shape after a reaction occurs?
While the structure of an enzyme can, and often does, change over the course of a reaction, after a reaction has completed, enzymes are returned to their starting state. It is worth noting that certain cofactors (such as ATP or GTP) may also need to be replaced in order for the reaction to procede again.
What is a change in the shape of an enzyme allowing it to react effectively with a substrate is a what?
A change in the shape of an enzyme that allows it to better bind with a substrate is called induced fit. This conformational change occurs when the enzyme interacts with the substrate, forming a more complementary fit that enhances reaction efficiency.
What is the name of the Place on an enzyme where reaction occurs?
"Inside your mouth. It's like the saliva that you won't be able to taste food without."Err... lol.A enzyme reacts with a substrate at the enzyme's active site.
What things can change the rate of an enzyme catalyzed reaction?
ur face
Hydrochloric acid and catalase reaction?
When hydrochloric acid reacts with catalase, it can lead to the denaturation of the catalase enzyme. This denaturation occurs due to the acidic nature of the hydrochloric acid, which disrupts the protein structure of the enzyme. As a result, the catalase enzyme loses its ability to catalyze reactions effectively.
When an enzyme catalyzes a reaction do Substrates bind in the active site or do Products bind in the active site?
Substrates. Once the enzyme and the substrate combine, on the product is created.
What changes the rate of a reaction?
* Presence of enzyme * Change in pH * Change in temperature * Change in salt concentration.
The active site of an enzyme is the location of substrate attachment?
The active site of an enzyme is where the substrate binds and undergoes a chemical reaction. It is a region on the enzyme molecule where catalysis takes place. The active site has a specific shape that allows it to interact with the substrate with high specificity.
Why are enzymes three dimensional shape so important?
An enzyme's three dimension shape is important to the binding that occurs between the enzyme itself and its specific substrate, forming the enzyme-substrate complex. In order for the enzyme to create a reaction it is important that the shape of the enzyme binds the substrate to the active site where the chemical reaction occurs. One other thing to consider is the shape that the enzyme takes that allows only its specific substrate to bind and not any other molecule.
