How is the synthesis of a constitutive enzyme stopped?
by changing their catalytic activity
What happens when enzyme reaches optimal temperature?
The optimal function of the enzyme is impeded and if the temperature rises too high the enzyme, mostly protein, will degrade and become useless.
Region where enzyme and subtrate bind?
Active site
3 What is true about the active site of an enzyme a. It is composed of distinct amino acids that perform catalytic activities b. It often has a prosthetic group depending on the enzyme c?
both A and B

AcrosomeAcrosome
What happens at the active site of an enzyme?
the substrate bonds to the enzyme at the active site
An enzyme is not consumed by the catalytic process?
true

In a paper on the catalytic activity of an enzyme, in which section would you find detailed information on how the enzyme was prepared and handled in the experiment?
materials and methods
In a chemical reaction a reactant binds to an enzyme at a region know as?
the region where a reactant binds to an enzyme is known as the active site
What is it called the region of the enzyme where glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate binds?
The region of an enzyme where the substrate binds is called the active site.

What is inhibition and why enzymes need to be inhibited?
- Inhibition of an enzyme is to inhibit the catalytic activity of the enzyme. - Because, by blocking or inhibiting an enzyme's activity can kill a pathogen or correct a metabolic imbalance. Example : Inhibition of HIV protease.
What is Kcat?
Catalytic turnover constant. See the article on enzyme kinetics. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kcat
