It returns to its original shape, and is reused. Look up the 'lock and key' and 'induced fit' models.

The enzyme is inactive at this point. New enzyme must be added to regain enzyme activity


What happens when a DNA molecule unzips?

DNA splits, and mRNA and tRNA are there to create new strands for the new replicated DNA strand. This is what happens prior to mitosis in cell division.

What does a enzyme-substrate complex do?

An enzyme-substrate complex is formed when a subtrate molecule binds with the active site of an enzyme that is of similar shape and size. The active site of the enzyme will alter slightly to combine with the substrate molecule. This will put an strain on a particular bond of the substrate molecule, which will lower the activation energy for the reaction as the bond will break more readily. The substrate is then catalysed.


What is the role of rna?

RNA polymerase is an enzyme that is responsible for copying a DNA sequence into an RNA sequence, duyring the process of transcription. As complex molecule composed of protein subunits, RNA polymerase controls the process of transcription, during which the information stored in a molecule of DNA is copied into a new molecule of messenger RNA.


What is enzyme turnover?

Enzyme turnover is a replacement of new for 'old'.
